The Naturena-based club has been chasing the signature of the youngster since the conclusion of the 2023-2024 season.
However, despite submitting an official bid for the player, Chiefs was met with rejection, as Spurs hierarchy demanded more than Amakhosi was offering to partways with Velebayi.
With Velebayi featuring for Spurs in their opening game of the 2024-2025 Motsepe Foundation Championship away at AmaTuks, Chiefs is set to submit an improved bid for his services according to The Citizen.
“Asenele is young, so it makes sense that Spurs are trying to get more money from his proposed transfer,” The Citizen stated.
“The player is also interested in joining Chiefs, but for now, he has to focus on his current club as Chiefs prepare to go back to Spurs with an improved offer.
“You saw today that he had a good game, and the Chiefs fans will love him because he’s quick on the wing and tricky to defend against.
“The good thing is that both clubs have a decent relationship after Rushwin’s (Dortley) move to Chiefs recently, and hopefully, they will come to an agreement.”
