Mayele's departure comes as a bittersweet moment for Yanga fans, as they bid farewell to the Congolese footballer who has etched his name into the club's history forever.
Arriving at Yanga with a blaze of excitement, Mayele wasted no time in showcasing his worth on the pitch, given in his first season with the club, the prolific striker netted an impressive total of 16 goals in the NBC Premier League.
The forward narrowly missed out on the NBC Premier League coveted golden boot by a single goal to Geita Gold FC's attacker George Mpole, who scored 17. Yet, even in the face of this heartbreak, Mayele's determination remained unyielding.
Undeterred by his near-miss, Mayele persisted and the following season proved to be even more exceptional for the Congolese striker.
He found the back of the net an astounding 17 times, tying with Said Ntibazonkiza of Simba SC for the coveted top goal scorer accolade.
However, it was on the continental stage that Mayele truly shone as, throughout the last season, the Congolese sharpshooter proved to be Yanga's talisman in the CAF Confederation Cup.
With his predatory instincts and lethal finishing, Mayele scored a remarkable 14 goals in the CAF Champions League and CAF Confederation Cup combined.
One unforgettable moment etched in the hearts of the Yanga faithful was the CAF Confederation Cup match against US Monastir in Tunisia.
Despite the pouring rain, fans showed unwavering support, and Mayele could not help but express his gratitude for their dedication and love.
"Yanga was like a family to me, and I feel pain for the decision that I have made, but you have to accept my decision to leave for another challenge," Mayele emotionally stated while bidding farewell.
He stated: "I thank the management, players, and fans for the support during my time at Yanga."
Mayele's departure comes after two successful seasons with Yanga, which had the forward catapulting the Jangwani Street-based side to clinching two Premier League titles, two Azam Sports Federation Cup (ASFC) top honours, and two Community Shield triumphs.
Moreover, his exploits led Yanga to qualify for the CAF Confederation Cup final for the first time in the club's history during the 2022/2023 season, with the forward finishing as the tournament's top goal scorer with seven goals.
As he moves on to Pyramids FC, the Egyptian club gains a prolific forward who is sure to make an impact in the country's league and continental competitions.
For Yanga, saying goodbye to their talismanic striker may be heartbreaking but they can take solace in the unforgettable memories he created during his time with the club.
Mayele's journey from Yanga to Pyramids FC marks the beginning of a new chapter in his career.
As he embarks on this new challenge, Yanga fans will forever cherish the memories of his exceptional goal-scoring prowess, unwavering dedication, and the joy he brought to the pitch in every match.
Mayele's name will forever be etched in the annals of Yanga's history, and his legacy will serve as an inspiration for future generations of players who don the green and yellow jerseys.
