Mares players, Refilwe 'Seven' Tholakele and Kesegofetse 'Odinga' Mochawe could soon be back on the pitch after their stay in Equatorial Guinea was cut short last year.

The two signed for Equatorial Guinea's Malabo Kings after their impressive displays at the Women's Africa Cup of Nations finals in Morocco last year July. But things did not go according to plan, which saw the duo return prematurely.

During a Botswana Football Association (BFA) press conference this week, the association's general manager, Monnakgotla Mojaki said Tholakele was having trials at South African side, Mamelodi Sundowns, while Gaborone United are running the rule over Mochawe. “I did communicate with Sundowns to ask them about the possibility of having Tholakele and they confirmed that she is training with them. They also said they have engaged the Malabo team with a view of discussing the settlement, kind of buying her out of the contract,” Mojaki said.
