Despite being linked with a move to Tanzania Premier League side Azam FC, Goal now understands Francis Kahata is in talks with Al-Merikh of Sudan, among other clubs.
Kahata left Tanzanian giants Simba SC after two seasons, and is now free to enter into transfer talks with any club and Sudan's side has emerged as one possible destination for the forward as talks have begun.
"Kahata is in talks with not only the club mentioned but with several others," a source close to the player told Goal.
