“The two teams have been in talks with SuperSport United for weeks now. Jeremy is still contracted to SuperSport United, and it is all up to SuperSport if they want to sell him or not,” he added.
Makaab says Brockie has attracted interest from overseas.
“There’s interest in China and Middle East in Jeremy, but his buy-out clause is applicable in June,” he continued.
“It is going to be difficult for him to leave and go overseas now. He can only move locally. He doesn’t have a buy-out clause for local teams,” Makaab concluded.
