The African transfer market is seeing notable movements during the current window. Former Mamelodi Sundowns FC striker Peter Shalulile is attracting significant attention across the continent. Reports indicate that two of Tanzania’s biggest clubs are monitoring his situation.

According to Soccer Laduma, both Yanga SC and Simba SC have been linked with the experienced Namibian forward. The 31-year-old recently became a free agent. This status followed the decision by Mamelodi Sundowns FC not to renew his contract. The decision concluded a highly successful period at Chloorkop. During his tenure, he established a reputation as one of the most prolific strikers in the Premier Soccer League.

High Interest in East Africa

A source spoke to the media regarding the interest from the NBC Premier League. The source indicated that officials from Yanga and the Simba CEO are believed to be traveling to South Africa. The purpose of the trip is to attempt to complete a deal. However, it remains unclear whether either club has formally tabled an offer. The publication noted that they could not independently verify the reported interest from either club at the time of publication.

This development highlights the growing competitive nature of East African football. Both clubs frequently look to strengthen their squads with proven continental talent. For Peter Shalulile, a move to Tanzania represents one of several potential pathways. The striker has also been linked with potential opportunities further abroad, including interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia. No final move has been confirmed at this stage.
