Mamelodi Sundowns could be preparing for a potential reunion with former Bafana Bafana international Percy Tau, with reports suggesting that the Premier Soccer League champions are considering bringing the experienced forward back to Chloorkop on a permanent deal.
According to information shared by SoccerBeat, Sundowns have been monitoring Tau's physical condition, with his recent improvement in fitness reportedly attracting the attention of head coach Miguel Cardoso. The Portuguese tactician is believed to be impressed by the progress made by the attacker, potentially opening the door for a return to South African football.
Tau previously enjoyed a successful spell with Sundowns, where he established himself as one of the country's most exciting attacking talents. His performances for the Brazilians played an important role in attracting interest from overseas clubs, eventually allowing him to pursue opportunities in European and African football.
During his career abroad, the 32-year-old represented several well-known clubs, including Brighton and Hove Albion, Club Brugge, Anderlecht and Egyptian giants Al Ahly. His experience in different competitions has added significant value to his football career and could make him an attractive option for Sundowns.
A possible return would give Cardoso another experienced attacking option as the club continues its pursuit of domestic and continental success. Tau's familiarity with the South African football environment could also help him settle quickly if an agreement is reached.
However, his fitness remains a crucial consideration, with Sundowns expected to assess whether he can meet the physical demands of competing at the highest level.
There has been no official confirmation from Mamelodi Sundowns regarding a permanent transfer, and it remains unclear whether negotiations have taken place.
Nevertheless, reports of the club's interest have generated excitement among supporters, many of whom would welcome the return of the former Bafana Bafana star to the PSL.
If the proposed move materialises, Tau's return to Chloorkop could become one of the notable transfer stories in South African football.
