If there’s a straight decision to be made for Kaizer Chiefs between Thulani Serero and ex-Orlando Pirates star Andile Jali, one man is clear.

Perhaps we’re all living in a fantasy world, but Kaizer Chiefs can and really should sign Thulani Serero after being linked to former Orlando Pirates man Andile Jali.

ICYMI: Did you know Thulani Serero used to ball with the Arsenal captain?

KAIZER CHIEFS KNOW ALL ABOUT CREAM

Thulani Serero has enjoyed a stellar career outside of the PSL in the Netherlands and now the UAE. However, the 33-year-old’s current contract with Al Jazira is expiring and a move back to Mzansi reportedly appeals to the player.

REVEALED: Lionel Messi’s next destination!

Serero spent eight years on the European club scene and the entirety of it was in the Netherlands. It it all began with Ajax Amsterdam in 2011 after a €2.5m move from partner club Ajax Cape Town. He spent six years with the Dutch giants, notching 121 appearances for the club including 11 outings in the Champions League. His move to Vitesse Arnhem in 2017 saw him link up effectively with current Arsenal skipper Martin Ødegaard. Serero played a withdrawn midfield role for Vitesse with Ødegaard ahead of him as an 8.

GOAT: Will these Lionel Messi records ever be broken?

RUMOUR: Orlando Pirates striker to be shown the exit door!

It’s anybody’s guess where Andile Jali will be playing his football next season. It won’t be at Sundowns though. The former Bafana Bafana and Orlando Pirates midfield general will have no lack of suitors, but he doesn’t fit the new, emerging philosophy at Chiefs. Ironically enough, Jali is only ONE DAY older than Serero, but the latter will have a new lease on life should he return to the PSL. Jali seems jaded.

The decision for Kaizer Chiefs, should they have the privilege of making it, is surely obvious.

MESSI STATS: The foot of God!

WOW: Lionel Messi to face former Kaizer Chiefs star Njabulo Blom next season
