City, meanwhile, are being led by former Pirates coach Eric Tinkler, who is allegedly keen on reuniting with the wing at the club.

‘Several clubs have expressed interest in Myeni and Pirates are assessing offers for the player. Ajax, City and Wits are all in the race at the moment, but only the best offer will see him leave Pirates as planned,’ the source said.

The wing is a product of the Ajax academy, while the Cape side’s coach Roger De Sa having managed the player at Wits.

Wits, meanwhile, are eyeing Myeni as a possible replacement for the departed Sibusiso Vilakazi, who left for Mamelodi Sundowns.

Myeni made 29 appearances for the Buccaneers last term.
