Several of South Africa's top-flight players will be using the break from football as an opportunity to not only regain full fitness, but to reassess their future.
The Absa Premiership is on an indefinite break due to coronavirus epidemic which has brought a halt to sport across the globe.
Betway identifies five Absa Premiership stars who need a transfer ahead of the 2020/21 season:
Ramahlwe Mphahlele (Kaizer Chiefs)
The former Mamelodi Sundowns captain joined rivals Kaizer Chiefs on a free transfer in July 2016 and although he enjoyed regular game time in his first three seasons with the Amakhosi, he has featured just the two times across all competitions in the current campaign.
Mphahlele has been capped 15 times by South Africa, but has played just once for Bafana Bafana since November 2018. At the age of 30, he will be seriously considering his future as he nears the start of the final year of his contract at Naturena.
Aubrey Ngoma (Mamelodi Sundowns)
There are several players at Mamelodi Sundowns who could do with a move away from Chloorkop and while Rivaldo Coetzee and Phakmani Mahlambi still have age on their side, Ngoma will be 31-years-old later this year.
The former AmaTuks and Orlando Pirates winger joined Sundowns from Cape Town City in January 2018, but has managed just the 14 appearances for the Brazilians.
Having played such a crucial role in the Citizens success in the 2016/17 season, it is still hard to understand why he moved to Sundowns in the first place.

Brighton Mhlongo (Bidvest Wits)
The former Orlando Pirates shot-stopper hasn't enjoyed regular game time since the 2015/16 season when he was still on the Buccaneers' books.
He played just 10 times on-loan at Chippa United before moving to Bidvest Wits where he has made just two appearances since joining the club in 2018, having fallen behind both Brandon Petersen and Ricardo Goss in the pecking order.
At 29 years of age, he is entering his prime as a goalkeeper and will be eager for regular game time, no doubt.
Justin Shonga (Orlando Pirates)
The Zambian international was a first team regular in his first two season at the club and scored 12 goals while assisting a further eight in 43 appearances across all competitions last season.
Shonga has been unable to carry that form into the current campaign and is yet to find the back of the net in 11 matches this season.
With fellow strikers Tshegofatso Mabasa and Zakhele Lepasa also just 23-years-old, Shonga will need to pull up his socks - especially as a foreign player if he is to occupy one of the club's foreign spots going forward. With Malawi's Gabadinho Mhango banging in the goals it might be best for him to press the refresh button elsewhere.

Thabo Mnyamane (SuperSport United)
The former AmaTuks forward was a wanted man following the 2015/16 season and eventually decided to join SuperSport United where he enjoyed immediate success.
He scored eight goals and assisted seven in 37 matches in his first season with the club and having netted another seven goals the following season the future looked bright for the attacker in Matsatsanta blue.
Injury and a drop in form, though, has seen him fall down the pecking order and Mnyamane has managed just nine games over the last two seasons. At 27 years of age, a change in environment could be just the thing to get him back on track.
