The 27-year-old joined Matsatsantsa from Danish club FC Randers in January on a short loan deal.
Masango returned to South Africa to reunite with his former coach, Stuart Baxter. With one more year left on his three-year contract with Randers, SuperSport United would have to discuss a transfer fee with the Danish club.
“We can’t decide to keep him. We have to talk to his club, which we will do after the Nedbank Cup final [against Orlando Pirates on June 24].
“We would like to keep him, but it’s all finance-dependent,” Matthews added.
The Bafana Bafana international hit the ground running in his first season in the Danish Superliga when he was named the supporters’ player of the season, but his second season saw him spend a lot of time on the bench after falling out with the club’s management, which led to him training with United while he was on holiday in South Africa.
