Phakaaathi reported that Keet had attracted interest from Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs with his contract at Wits set to expire in June.
Keet says he is aware of the reports linking him to the Soweto giants and other clubs in the PSL, however he will wait for Wits to offer him a new contract before deciding his future.
“Obviously there is talks, and there is always going to be interest around players in South Africa, it is no different for me and with my contract is coming to an end and if a player is free it makes it easier for clubs because they don’t have to pay transfer fees and things like that. But no I am not looking to go to any club in South Africa. I will stay at Wits like I said there is no better place for me to be than right here, my family is happy the club likes me, I like the club. Any money any club can offer, Wits can pay me also, we have more chance of winning the league than a lot of other teams,” said Keet.
While he disputed reports that Sundowns had made an offer for him, Keet was coy about his reported talks with Chiefs.
