Bradley Grobler of Supersport United

SuperSport United striker Bradley Grobler will have every team interested in his services if he continues his rich vein of form, according to the forwards agent.

It was much publicised in the last transfer window that Orlando Pirates were keen on brining in the Bafana Bafana forward, but the deal fell through at the last minute.

Since the deal collapsed, Grobler has gone on to start the season on fire as he won the Player of the Month award for August and claimed the MTN8 crown, scoring the winner in the process.

SuperSport United CEO Stan Matthews recently admitted that he would let the forward decided his own future after serving the club so well and Grobler’s agent Sean Roberts revealed that the forward may be on the move in January.

‘[Since] June, July nothing you know, obviously there was lots of interest from Sundowns and Pirates but nothing materialised,’ he told KickOff.com.

‘Obviously the fine form that he’s been in has obviously created more demand but he is a SuperSport player you know, nothing is going to change. January something might change but he is a very professional player, you know what I mean. It’s not going to affect his performance or anything like that.’

‘That’s a tough one hey, I mean it’s a tough question, and that’s up to the player. But as I said right now he is focused on SuperSport and winning more trophies, scoring more goals. I don’t even think he’s thinks about anything. I think he’s just focused on SuperSport,’ said Roberts when quizzed on where would be Grobler’s preferred destination.

‘Look I mean the SuperSport style of play fits Bradley perfectly, you know what I mean. So for him to leave SuperSport it needs to be very worthwhile, but like I said he’s really focused one hundred percent on SuperSport and I’m sure SuperSport are going to come to the game and extend his contract anyway.

‘But who knows? [Laughs] Man I know Kaizer Chiefs have always been a fan of him but I don’t think… they haven’t shown any interest lately if you know what I mean. I don’t think so, I think they’ve got enough firepower up front to be honest.

‘But again if Bradley keeps on scoring like he’s scoring and keeps on playing like he’s playing, I don’t see why every team won’t want him because he’s playing amazingly well at the moment.’

Roberts also opened up on the failed move to Pirates and added that it might have happened for a good reason.

‘Nothing since August you know [on Pirates interest], there were a couple of factors involved, which I can’t really go through. But it just fell through last minute, and you know everything happens for a reason, but I believe it fell through for the right reasons because look at the form now Bradley has found you know.

‘I think Bradley’s still got four, five years left easy. He’s doing a lot of work on himself outside of football, and you can see the difference on his body now. He’s a top striker so he’s able to adapt… I think most of the best players in the world are able to adapt to anything. So if the right offer comes along, and Bradley is happy, and he feels he can fit in that style of football, then we’ll look at it for sure,’ he concluded.
