According to a source close to the 22-year-old, Amakhosi and the NFD side have discussed the possible move.
"Chiefs have decided to release the boy on loan," says the source.
"The player is still weighing up options but Eagles look like his next destination."
Cele has also been linked with a switch to Moroka Swallows, as has Mandla Masango, while Jimmy Jambo is likewise facing the exit door at Naturena.
