Interest from Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates, and Mamelodi Sundowns

Kaizer Chiefs was the first club to show interest in Human, but Maritzburg United exercised their option to extend his contract for another season. Orlando Pirates later joined the race, hoping to strike a double deal that would see him team up with Karim Kimvuidi. Human himself expressed openness to joining Amakhosi due to his close ties to the club, including regular contact with vice-captain Keagan Dolly from his neighborhood.

Maritzburg United has set a hefty asking price of R10 million for the promising player, raising questions about its fairness and whether Chiefs, Pirates, or Sundowns will be willing to meet the demand. The fierce competition surrounding Human’s potential transfer showcases the immense talent and promise he brings to the field.
