“The move might happen or not, but Wits are really insisting on keeping him at the club. This is a very complicated issue between Wits and Ben. He feels he owes the club a lot, so he won’t leave if he doesn’t get the club’s blessing. But again, Downs are not going to give up easily on signing him,” said the source.

Meanwhile, Pitso Mosimane says Sundowns could release more players before the transfer window shuts on Wednesday.

The Masandawana coach has already let Mogakolodi Ngele go to SuperSport United on loan while he has also confirmed that Siyanda Zwane has joined Ajax Cape Town on loan.

“We will see, I don’t like to keep big numbers,” added Mosimane. “I like to have 24 or 25 players. When you have up to 30 players you can have a disgruntled or unhappy camp, so it is important to release players. Unfortunately not many teams want to buy (as opposed to loan) our players.”
