Kaizer Chiefs boss Bobby Motaung refuses to chase Bafana Bafana star Percy Tau because the striker cares more about cash than football. The club manager slammed players who discuss salaries before showing passion for the team badge. Motaung believes genuine footballers should love the game first and let money follow later. He thinks Tau has the wrong attitude for Chiefs after hearing about his salary demands. The executive wants players who sacrifice for the club rather than those chasing quick paychecks.
Tau recently told reporters he would join Chiefs for 450,000 rand per month but prefers Mamelodi Sundowns instead. The 31-year-old forward also mentioned Orlando Pirates and Stellenbosch as possible destinations for his next move. He finished a brief contract with Qatar SC and became a free agent looking for new opportunities. Egyptian giants Zamalek have shown interest in signing the experienced striker for their squad rebuild. Tau needs a new club quickly to stay in the Bafana Bafana team for upcoming matches.
Motaung stressed that football requires sacrifice and deep commitment beyond just earning money. He explained that players need the right spirit to succeed at big clubs like Chiefs. The manager learned from experience that mercenary attitudes lead to players quitting when things get difficult. Chiefs will focus on finding players who genuinely want to represent the club rather than those motivated by financial gain.
