According to Soccer Laduma, the 26-year-old striker is unlikely to move away from the Team of Choice, with his representative Mike Makaab insisting that his client is settled with the KwaZulu-Natal-based club.

“These are rumours. Judas is settled at Maritzburg,” Makaab told the SoccerLaduma.

The Soweto giants were said to have been keen on luring the hardworking attacker to Parktown following reports linking one of the strikers Justin Shonga with a move abroad.

Pirates have however haven’t confirmed nor denied the Chipolopolo star’s move, thus it remains to be seen which changes will be implemented on coach Josef Zinnbauer’s side.
