Sundowns star Mokoena attracts interest from Saudi giants
According to a source, Mokoena is keen for a move outside South Africa.
Teboho Mokoena, a valuable midfielder for Mamelodi Sundowns, is reportedly attracting interest from Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli. The Saudi Pro League side views Mokoena as a potential successor to Franck Kessié, who recently transferred to Italian club Atalanta. Despite having three years remaining on his contract with Sundowns, Mokoena is eager to explore opportunities abroad.
"Tebza (Teboho Mokoena) has won everything with Sundowns including the CAF Champions League, so now he wants to explore new opportunities," said a source close to the situation. Mokoena's agent, Glyn Binkin, has also confirmed that the midfielder feels he has achieved all there is to achieve in his home country. Al-Ahli is reportedly keen to sign Mokoena, but they would need to make a significant financial investment to do so.
The Egyptian giants are also said to be interested in the player, although they have not yet submitted a formal bid to Sundowns.
