SuperSport United striker Bradley Grobler has explained why he is keen to extend his stay with the Tshwane side.

Grobler, who recently netted his 100th PSL goal, is into the last few months of his SuperSport contract, as it expires when the season comes to an end.

During his stay at the club, Grobler has been unfortunate with injury setbacks. However, the DStv Premiership club stood by him in difficult times.

The 35-year-old revealed that he had to undergo three major surgeries during his time at the club.

โ€œIf I finish my career and retire here at this club it wouldnโ€™t be disappointing, with everything they have done for me.

PUTTING SUPERSPORT FIRST AND OTHER OFFERS

Grobler further stated that there other clubs interested in his services. However, his first preference is the Tshwane outfit where he has spent 11 seasons.

โ€œThere has been talk and interest [from other teams], but Iโ€™ve always said with no disrespect to other teams, Iโ€™ve enjoyed myself and I would always given SuperSport first option.

โ€œIf it came to a point when they felt itโ€™s time to move on I will do that, but Iโ€™ve always given them first option. Then theyโ€™ve shown interest then weโ€™ll see where it goes in the next couple of weeks,โ€ he added.

Grobler is expected to be in action when they face Golden Arrows in their next DStv Premiership match on Sunday.
