Jali has been without a club since parting ways with Moroka Swallows in January following a dispute over unpaid salary.

Speaking on Extratime on Gagasi FM, Makaab said Jali is still considering his future and contemplating whether he will continue to play football or retire from the game.

“Andile at the moment is contemplating his future as to whether he will continue to play or not, I will probably be meeting Andile in the next two weeks or so and a decision I think will then be made, and I will let Andile announce that decision himself,” said Makaab.

“You must understand that Andile has been with me for 14 years, he is not just a client he is my son as all the players are, the most important thing is for them to make that decision,” Makaab added.
