Pyramids FC have reportedly tabled a new contract extension offer to club striker, Fiston Mayele.
The Sky Blues clinched their first-ever CAF Champions League title by defeating Mamelodi Sundowns 3-2 on aggregate in the two-legged final, having drawn 1-1 in the first leg and winning 2-1 in the second.
The DR Congo striker was instrumental throughout the campaign, scoring nine goals in the tournament earned him the Champions League Golden Boot.
Mayele also made a significant impact in the Egyptian Premier League, helping Pyramids FC secure a second-place finish. He has also played a key role in helping the club to reach the Egypt Cup final, where they will face Zamalek SC.
According to reports in Egypt, Pyramids have submitted an initial offer to Mayele’s camp, reportedly valued between $3 million and $4 million per season.
“Mayele’s career with Pyramids FC will end at the end of the current season. The player will leave after the Zamalek and Pyramids match in the Egypt Cup final,” Almasryalyoum has revealed.
“Mayele has received incredible offers, offers exceeding $3 million (R55 million) and reaching $4 million (R74 million) per season.
“The player is receiving $1 million per season from Pyramids, but he completely refuses to continue,” he added.
“Pyramids Club, in appreciation of the player and the fact that he is the top scorer in the African Champions League and was one of the reasons the team won the championship.”
Furthermore, the Congolese forward had previously been linked with Kaizer Chiefs and even confirmed holding discussions with Amakhosi head coach Nasreddine Nabi regarding a potential move.
