Third bid for Segolela

Tlou Segolela's agent has revealed Standard Liege have returned with a third bid that is ‘very close' to Orlando Pirates' asking price for the Bafana Bafana winger. 

The Belgian side have already had two offers for the 23-year-old turned down by The Buccaneers as they attempt to lure him to the Jupiler League. But agent Tim Sukazi believes their qualification for the Europa League on Thursday has given Jose Riga's side the financial muscle to persuade Pirates to sell Segolela.
