Kaizer Chiefs striker Samir Nurkovic's agent has disclosed his client convinced new Mamelodi Sundowns striker Pavol Safranko to come to play in South Africa.

The 26-year-old marksman, who is a Slovakia international, recently joined the reigning PSL champions on a five-year deal following a two-year spell with Romanian outfit Sepsi OSK.

Safranko scored 17 goals from 68 matches in the Romanian Liga 1 and he helped the team qualify for the newly formed Uefa Conference League, before moving to Sundowns.
