South African outfit Kaizer Chiefs are expected to miss out on their top target Fiston Mayele in the ongoing transfer window.
The Congolese star has become a subject of interest for several clubs following an impressive campaign with Egyptian giants Pyramids FC.
After leading Pyramids to their first African title by scoring in every round of the playoffs, interest in Mayele has soared. He emerged as the top scorer in the recently concluded CAF Champions League campaign.
Despite expressing strong interest in the forward, Kaizer Chiefs could miss out on their target over financial demands.
With an unnamed club reportedly offering €3.5 million for the forward, a move to Kaizer Chiefs looks increasingly unlikely.
Mayele will certainly leave Pyramids this summer, with clubs from other leagues offering him a salary between $3 and $4 million, while his current wage at Pyramids stands at $1 million.
In recognition of his contribution as the CAF Champions League top scorer and one of the key reasons behind their championship triumph, Pyramids are prepared to sanction a move for Mayele.
