Jayden Adams, a 23-year-old midfielder from Stellenbosch, is on the verge of leaving his current club and joining one of South Africa’s football powerhouses.
The talented Bafana Bafana star has long been linked with a move to Kaizer Chiefs, with Orlando Pirates also reportedly showing interest.
However, it now looks like neither club has made a serious bid for the player, leaving Mamelodi Sundowns in prime position to secure his signature.
Sundowns’ Strong Interest and the Likely Move
Mamelodi Sundowns have shown clear intent to bring Adams on board.
Before the current season started, they splashed significant cash to sign Iqraam Rayners from Stellenbosch, signaling their ambitions.
Reports suggest that Adams could join the Tshwane giants this month, with Lesiba Nku potentially moving in the opposite direction to Stellenbosch.
The move seems almost set, according to sources close to the deal.
Stellenbosch CEO Remains Tight-Lipped on Adams’ Future
While talks about Adams’ potential move are circulating, Stellenbosch’s CEO, Rob Benadie, has opted to keep things under wraps for now.
Speaking to SABC Sport, Benadie acknowledged the possibility of player movement but emphasized that discussions are still in their early stages.
“We cannot make any specific comments at this point,” he said, though he reassured that updates would be shared when the situation becomes more concrete.
Competition at Sundowns and Potential Opportunity at Chiefs
Although a move to Sundowns would see Adams face fierce competition for a starting spot, a transfer to Kaizer Chiefs could offer him more playing time, given his style of play.
The midfielder is known for his agility and technical skills, qualities that could fit well at Chiefs, who have been struggling in recent seasons.
However, Sundowns’ winning mentality and consistent trophy haul may prove irresistible for Adams, making Chloorkop a more appealing destination for the ambitious player.
