Wexler open to offers in PSL

Wexler, the son of former Hellenic player Brian, was previously with Ajax Cape Town and the Old Mutual Academy. He can play either on the right or in a more central position. 

The 19-year-old says he would like to move to get more time on the pitch.

"I am in search of first team opportunity, and with a new coaching staff with new ideas in place [at Maritimo], I don't see it happening," he tells KickOff.com. "I also share the same situation with a couple of other African players within the club."

Wexler was selected for the South Africa Under-20s for the recent 8-Nations tournament in Cape Town.

"I am still in South Africa and am looking for a deal here to further my career," he says. "Obviously my sights are still set on a return to Europe as I now know what is expected of me.

"I hold the PSL in high regard and feel the standard is very good and would be a good challenge."

With the end of the transfer window fast approaching, Wexler says he has not approached any clubs yet, but looks to be leaving Maritimo on a free transfer.

"I have not made myself available or approached any clubs as yet; however I have discussed with Maritimo that I be let go on a free transfer if any club comes with an offer as they fully understand my situation. So I am now hoping to find a club in South Africa."

Wexler joined Maritimo in January and represented their youth side. He missed most matches this season, owing to injuries and a delayed registration, but took part in three official games and four friendlies, managing to score three goals and lay on five assists.
