Percy Tau: Chiefs Snubbed Him?! Zamalek Deal OFF! What's Next?

The future of Bafana Bafana star Percy Tau remains a hot topic in South African football. After his departure from Qatar SC, speculation has been rife about his next move, with links to both Kaizer Chiefs and Egyptian giants Zamalek.

Chiefs Out of the Running?

Kaizer Chiefs were initially touted as a potential destination for Tau, but recent comments from Bobby Motaung suggest that a deal is unlikely. Motaung hinted that Tau's financial demands might have been a stumbling block, stating, "When you start talking about money first, he's not coming to our club! That's not your player." This suggests that Chiefs may have opted against pursuing Tau due to his salary expectations.

Zamalek Deal Collapses?

Reports had also linked Tau with a move to Zamalek SC in Egypt. However, according to Soccer Laduma, Zamalek are no longer interested in acquiring the forward. Despite earlier suggestions of negotiations, sources close to the Egyptian club have indicated that they feel Tau's level has dropped since his previous stint in Egypt with Al Ahly. The club are also reportedly hesitant to add another foreign player to their squad.

What's Next for Percy Tau?

With both Kaizer Chiefs and Zamalek seemingly out of the picture, the question remains: where will Percy Tau play next? As a free agent, he has the freedom to negotiate with any club. Could another PSL team swoop in? Or will he look for opportunities abroad? Only time will tell. Keep checking back for updates on this developing story.

The 31-year-old is reportedly open to playing for any team in the PSL, so fans should stay tuned to see where he lands next.
