Long-term Kaizer Chiefs target Percy Tau officially a free agent!

Percy Tau has been released by his Qatari club, Qatar SC in what could sent Kaizer Chiefs on high alert. Chiefs are known to be on the market for experienced forwards and Tau could certainly be available timorously. Tau had only joined Qatar SC in January from Al Ahly, in what has proven to be an extremely short stint. The South African international played just 10 times for the club, in an injury ravaged spell. He failed to find the back of the net during his time there, but was able to register four assists in the process. Tau proved to be one of several exits announced by the club on Thursday, including head coach Mehdi Natfi. Several other players; Ben Malango, Javi Martinez, Badr Benoun, Carlinhos Vinicius and Ahmed Abdelkader, who's loan ends and returns to Al Ahly. It now remains to be seen where the Lion of Judah ends up next as he becomes a free agent. Before signing for Qatar, there had been rumours of interesting in Iran, North Africa as well as South Africa. On home soil it has been Chiefs who have prominently been linked with the player over the years. During the previous close season, it was claimed that Amakhosi had made inquiries and even bids for Tau, but could not meet Al Ahly's valuation. With Tau being a free agent, that opens up the pool of clubs that can entice him with a deal. It also gives Chiefs an opportunity to speak to the player directly, with only a personal package to worry about. Coach Nasreddine Nabi has recently been doing the rounds trying to attract experienced attackers. Chiefs fans, would you like to see Tau at Amakhosi? Or has that ship now sailed?
