FORMER Springbok winger Tonderai Chavhanga has emerged as a possible contender for NSW Waratahs' marquee import position for next year's Super 14 series.
The Afrikaans Die Burger newspaper has reported that the Waratahs and Chavhanga have been in contact.
The Waratahs have also been negotiating with former All Black winger Sosene Anesi, who plays for the Chiefs.
If Anesi decides to stay in New Zealand, Chavhanga could become a real possibility for the Waratahs, who are looking for a replacement for sacked Wallaby Lote Tuqiri.
A lightning quick winger or fullback, the 25-year-old Chavhanga is out of contract with South African Super 14 side, the Stormers.
The Zimbabwean born Chavhanga is a proven try-scorer at Super rugby and Test level. He has played four Tests since making his debut against Uruguay in 2005, scoring six tries.
He would have played more Tests, but his career has been hampered by a succession of injuries.
