Ex-Kaizer Chiefs star Puso Dithejane has lit up the league for TS Galaxy, alerting Orlando Pirates and Sundowns to his availability.
Chicago Fire have swooped in to sign the talented wide man.
Fire to sign Dithejane from under Sundowns, Orlando Pirates noses
Versatile 21-year-old TS Galaxy man Puso Dithejane has become one of the most reliable performers in the Betway Premiership. Mamelodi Sundowns were thought to be keen on his signature, and his former club, Kaizer Chiefs, also contacted the player. However, Dithejane will be linking up with Mbekezeli Mbokazi in the MLS.

The MLS club confirmed the signing with a brief announcement welcoming the 21-year-old to the team, stating: “Welcome to the Club, Puso. We have acquired winger Puso Dithejane from TS Galaxy F.C. of South Africa’s Betway Premiership.”
One of the league’s best operators
This term, Dithejane took his output up a notch with eight direct goal contributions from 12 starts in the league for TS Galaxy. Dithejane’s ability to play anywhere on the right-hand side or even in central midfield surely made him a more attractive proposition for the Chicago Fire.
