The Hearts forward had a successful three years at the club and had a knack for influencing big games there.<\/p>\n<p>But Onyango would have a steep mountain to negotiate should he make the cut. South African number one keeper Itumeleng Khune would be right in his face. That makes Mariztburg a more likely destination. Platinum Stars and AmaZulu have also shown interest according to reports.<\/p>\n<p>Onyango, 26, confirmed to KickOff that a few teams have spoken to him, but so far nothing is official.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><strong>More News on allAfrica.com<\/strong><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read the original post:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201105160005.html\" title=\"Uganda: Cranes Keeper Onyango Linked to Chiefs, Maritzburg\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Uganda: Cranes Keeper Onyango Linked to Chiefs, Maritzburg<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Andrew Mwanguhya 16 May 2011 Mpumalanga Black Aces&#8217; relegation from the South African Premier Soccer League (PSL) may already be a certainty but not quite that of goalkeeper Dennis Onyango.
