The race for TS Galaxy’s exciting young attacker, Puso Dithejane, has
taken an international turn, with Major League Soccer’s Chicago Fire
reportedly entering the fray.
Dithejane’s future has become a major talking point this transfer window.
While TS Galaxy chairman Tim Sukazi confirmed Kaizer Chiefs’ interest in
re-signing the 21-year-old, no formal approach has been made by Amakhosi.
Domestically, Mamelodi Sundowns have already seen an offer rejected by the
Rockets.
Now, speculation has intensified following Chicago Fire’s public
announcement that they intend to add another South African player to their
squad, joining compatriot Mbekezeli Mbokazi. Sources indicate Dithejane is
firmly on the MLS club’s radar.
A significant link in the potential move is Dithejane’s representation. Late
last year, he joined the agency of high-profile agent Rob Moore, who was
instrumental in facilitating Njabulo Blom’s transfer from Kaizer Chiefs to
St Louis City. This connection lends considerable credibility to the
overseas interest.
Known for his blistering pace, creativity, and direct attacking style,
Dithejane has quickly become one of South Africa’s most sought-after
prospects after a breakout season with TS Galaxy. His performances have
drawn attention from top PSL sides and international scouts alike.
While no deal is confirmed, the prospect of Dithejane emulating Blom’s path
to the MLS is gaining momentum. For Galaxy, it would represent another proud
yet challenging moment—losing a key talent while seeing him progress to a
prominent overseas league.
With Kaizer Chiefs monitoring the situation, Mamelodi Sundowns’ initial bid
unsuccessful, and Chicago Fire now a serious contender, the coming weeks
will reveal whether Dithejane’s next step remains in the PSL or leads him
across the Atlantic.
