KGOTSO Moleko's future might only be known in the next fortnight as he waits to see what offers come from Europe.

The Bloemfontein Celtic right-back has already stated that he will leave the club when his contract expires at the end of this month.

But whether he will remain in the PSL or seek to continue his career abroad is a matter that he is still mulling over.

"We have received some very good proposals from big SA clubs and they are offers that are very interesting for Kgotso," said his agent, Tim Sukazi.

"But there has also been interest from Europe, which we are still waiting to firm up. Things are a bit slow over there because people are on their holidays and then they are focusing on the European Championships. So player acquisitions, particularly from Africa, are not on the priority list at the moment."

Sukazi said that should Moleko get comparable offers from South Africa and Europe, he would have a tough decision to make, admitting that it could come down to a "toss of the coin".

Meanwhile, there has been no movement on the futures of Lierse duo Daylon Claasen and Lance Davids, or AmaZulu forward Stanton Lewis.

Lewis has been talking to Lamontville Golden Arrows after admitting he has no future with Usuthu, but that deal might depend on who leaves Abafana Bes'thende. Davids has recently been spotted at Ajax Cape Town, but is looking to stay in Europe or move to the US and at this stage will not return to the PSL.

Claasen is waiting to see whether English Premiership side Queen's Park Rangers firm up their interest in him from January, and with Joey Barton likely to exit the London club that could be more likely.

But the issue of obtaining a work permit remains the biggest stumbling block to a move to the Premiership.
