Shalulile has been in hot form since joining Sundowns from Highlands Park, quickly becoming their man source of goals. His return in front of goal has helped the Brazilians to three DStv Premiership titles in a row, while he also led the side to a few cup titles during his time at Chloorkop. He arrived at the club shortly after the departure of Mosimane, who has had to see the Namibian international’s lethal side as an opposing coach at Al Ahly.

Now Shalulile’s impress goal record, which currently stands at 75 in 118 games for Sundowns attracted a lot interest in his services. It was thought that it was primarily the clubs from North Africa who had been keeping tabs on the player. The likes of Egyptian powerhouses, Al Ahly and FC Pyramids, where he could potentially form a deadly combination with South African striker Fagrie Lakay.

But maybe after realising it would be tough to get the Namibian from his former side, Mosimane would’ve thought bypassing Sundowns is a better option. He would then be hurting both them and their rivals Chiefs, with his now rumoured pursuit of Mayo. Mayo has recently signed a new long-term contract at Cape Town City which has seemingly priced the two South African sides out of a possible deal.

With the backing of the Middle Eastern money, it is believed signing Mayo may not be a problem for Al Wahda who have funds for Mosimane to use. According to Soccer-Laduma, the move could be on.
