Dikwena have been keen on extending the defender's stay in Rustenburg, while the Brazilians have been working hard to convince him to make the switch to Chloorkop.

However, Gumede is not interested in penning terms with either club, leading to claims he will instead join the Buccaneers for the second-half of the PSL season.

Gumede's agent, Vusi Manana, told KickOff: "It's official that both Platinum Stars and Sundowns are out. We will know before the end of this week about where the player will be signing."
