Peter Shalulile has been given first hand advice about what to do with the interest that has come in from Pitso Mosimane's UAE club Al Wadha.
Shalulile and Gaston Sirino have emerged as targets for Mosimane who has informed the club's management about this already.

While the interest has been confirmed there is the issue of a transfer with Shalulile still tied up to a long-term deal at Sundowns.
The Sundowns hitman already has 75 goals for The Brazilians in only 118 games since joining at the beginning of the 2020/21 season and has also touched the 100 goals mark playing for a South African top league club.
Any transfer will come at a record fee in the history of sales from South African clubs.
"The guy is turning 30 so I don't think there is any choice to make here," PSL legend Manuel 'Tico-Tico' Bucuane tells KickOff.com.
"He must just pack up and go and make money and if things don't work out there then he came always come back to Sundowns or another team in the PSL.
"If Pitso wants him in the UAE and there is better money there then he should leave.
"The guy has served Sundowns well and shown what he is capable of so he must now go and make that money.
"UAE will be a new country and a new league, but he has a coach that knows him and will stand by him.
"It is an easy choice to make because the coach will always be backing you even when you struggle a bit.
"When it is the coach who brought you then he will always give you a chance unlike being at a team where nobody stands by you.
"Once there is support from the coach it becomes easier to perform.
"My friend, there is no second thoughts about this situation.
"The guy (Shalulile) must just leave and if it means pushing for the move to happen then let it be.
"He must not be afraid to push for a move because players in Europe are also doing it.
"I'm sure Pitso's club can table an offer that is good enough for Sundowns to accept, that's the only stumbling block now.
"Players in their prime are leaving the top leagues in Europe and going to Saudi Arabia and this is all because of money.
"Money is difficult to resist.
"You play football for a living so if you they are going to pay you all that time for two to three years then why not.
"What else is there to stay at Sundowns for because he has won the league and scored 100 goals in South Africa?
"I was blinded by South Africa and never became aggressive enough to push for a move out at Cosmos early enough and I wouldn't want that to happen with any player.
"When there is a chance to make money, you must take it.
"At the end of the day after football you are on your own," says Tico-Tico who has previously encouraged Shalulile to leave.
