Lilepo joined Amakhosi on a two-and-a-half deal from French club Valenciennes FC in January last year.

Kaizer Chiefs winger Glody Lilepo is attracting interest, with Al-Ittihad being the latest club to be linked with the Congolese winger.

According to a source, the Libyan giants, who are coached by former Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates coach Rulani Mokwena, are set to table an offer for him at the end of the season.

“Rulani Mokwena likes Glody’s playing style and has asked the Al-Ittihad management to try and get him from Chiefs. The club has agreed to his request and will submit an enticing offer to Chiefs at the end of the season. It will be up to Chiefs if they accept the offer or not,” said the source.

The source added that Chiefs are ready to listen to offers for the 28-year-old whose contract will expire in June next year.

Lilepo joined Amakhosi on a two-and-a-half deal from French club Valenciennes FC in January last year. He scored an impressive six goals and made one assist in 15 league appearances for Chiefs in his debut season in the 2024/25 Betway Premiership and quickly became a fan favourite.
