With Pirates having released Paseka Mako and the retirement of Innocent Maela, their interest in the promising full-back comes as no surprise, while Chiefs are looking to remedy a position that has plagued them in the last couple of seasons.'

Former club Sundowns are also in the frame to seal his signature. Former Sundowns, Brighton and Anderlecht winger could be in line for a return to South African football. 'I'd listen to anybody, let's not rule out Orlando Pirates, or even Stellenbosch, SuperSport (United). I'll not rule out anyone. My decision will be based on who gives me a contract. Of course, Sundowns still has my love, but then it will be based on who gives me a contract because at the end of the day, I still have to support my family. So just because I love the club, it doesn't mean I'll stick around for any offer,' said Tau. According to reports, Pirates have approached SuperSport United to sign teenager Neo Rapoo.
