According to the latest transfer gossip, Mamelodi Sundowns striker Etiosa Ighodaro is wanted by Kaizer Chiefs!
The Nigerian striker who signed for Sundowns back in 2021, was loaned out to AmaZulu last season.
In fact, Ighodaro is yet to feature for the Brazilians after being loaned out every season since his arrival.
In total, the Kaizer Chiefs linked striker has scored 25-goals while registering four more assists in just under 100 appearances in the PSL.
“Yes, it’s true. Chiefs are believed to have enquired about Mamelodi Sundowns striker Etiosa Ighodaro,” an insider told Soccer Laduma.
“You know the thing is the same people who scouted him from Nigeria for Sundowns are the same who have enquired about him for Kaizer Chiefs.
“Actually it’s not the first time they have enquired about him. They tried before when he was on loan at Chippa United but Sundowns sent him on loan at SuperSport United. But now they are apparently looking at the possibility of Sundowns letting him go and they can pounce on him.”
