Therefore, it comes as no surprise that he has attracted so much interest from some of the biggest clubs in Africa.

“His representatives have received offers from all over Africa, and Zamalek and Al Ahly are the big ones. From the look of things, he won’t be here next season,” a relevant source confirmed on FarPost.

Meaning, Amakhosi will have to outbid Al Ahly, Pirates and Zamalek if they are to sign Chivaviro at the end of the season.

This is a key target for Amakhosi due to the inconsistent form of their current attackers. None of their attackers have reached double-figures this season, with Caleb-Bonfils Bimenyimana seven goals the highest from any of their forwards. Most of which came from penalties.

The Soweto giants have been widely critiqued for their lack of goals in open play. Dolly has only returned five goals this season while Khama Billiat is set to leave due to his lack of attacking prowess in recent seasons.

Furthermore, new signing Christian Saile has also failed to reach the expectations placed upon his while Ashley Du Preez has blown hot and cold all season. Therefore, Amakhosi are desperate to sign a clinical striker and Chivaviro has shown the potential to be this man.

“He still has a few months left in his contract with a one-year option to extend, so it’s all up to him. But he is a good striker, obviously, I don’t want to lose him,” Kerr added.
