Swallows brand manager Siya Sangweni told the Sowetan: "Representatives of Shenhua were impressed by some of our players, they expressed interest in signing them.
"We are waiting for them to come back to us. That's all I can say at this stage.
"I know the Chinese are looking for players, but I have not heard anything at this stage about me also being on their wanted list.
"It will be great for me to further my soccer career abroad, Shenhua are a big club in China. They are trying to recruit top players to join them."
