Orlando Pirates transfer rumours: Mbule, Nkota, Mthombeni

Mbule isn’t going anywhere, according to his agent

Despite rumours of a “falling out,” agent Mike Makaab clarified on March 5 that Sipho Mbule’s recent absence from matchday squads (including the Soweto Derby win) is owing to a minor injury rather than anything disciplinary in nature.

Mthombeni dreams of Orlando Pirates

After impressing for Casric Stars against Pirates in the Nedbank Cup, 25-year-old goalkeeper Wandile Mthombeni’s father, Casric coach Bucs Mthombeni, has reiterated that it’s his son’s dream to represent the Buccaneers.

Former Orlando Pirates star Nkota could be on the move

According to reports, Saudi Pro League side Al-Ettifaq has placed a €3 million (R57 million) valuation on Mohau Nkota’s head. The 21-year-old wide attacker hasn’t really set the world alight for his new side, managing a meagre two goals and three assists in 17 Saudi Pro League outings this term.
