South African clubs in the Premiership are interested in an Argentine striker who has professional football experience in South America and Europe, the Siya crew understands.
With goals hard to come by for various PSL clubs, there may be a need for teams to think outside the box when it comes to finding strikers with a higher conversation ratio.

Siya sources close to the player and clubs have indicated that both Golden Arrows and Moroka Swallows are interested in striker Claudio Spinelli.
The source added that the 26-year-old Argentinian is currently plying his trade in Uruguay for Club Deportivo Maldonado where his current contract expires soon on 31 December 2023.
"These two teams are interested in the striker. At first it was Golden (Arrows) who had their scouts monitoring the striker but now Swallows have come on board," said the Siya source.
"I can't say who exactly is in front at this moment because the next transfer window is coming up so we will see what happens when that time comes.
"For now it's just interest from both clubs," the source told the Siya crew.
A second source added that the striker will be a free agent in December which could make his move to South Africa easier than expected.
"I think the advantage will be that he will be a free agent in January and the team that wants to sign him will have that chance of getting him on a free. But the thing is there are currently two teams interested in him," said the second source.
"Most of the talk will depend on personal talks between the player and the clubs interested in him," the source concluded.
Spinelli has played for clubs such as Genoa, Lanus and Argentinos Jrs in the past.
Soccer Laduma contacted both clubs for comment but no response was received while preparing this story.
