“I don’t know why they announced his departure before speaking to his management,” said the source.
“If Cole wants, he can stay at the club for a year and get his salary but at his age of 33, he needs to be playing.
“Stellenbosch have also enquired about him but SuperSport United would be ideal because he played well under Gavin Hunt but the other problem is that he would have to take a paycut when he leaves Chiefs.”
