Orlando Pirates zero in on midfielder Nemtajela
WIth reports suggesting that Pirates have already wrapped up the signature of Masindi Nemtajela, some fans aren’t convinced of his quality.
Sisko860#1 said:
“Nemtajela for me is a miss. He is not Pirates material. I don’t know this Mashiloane. But both are average players. They are not better than what we have.”
Potential successor to Makhaula
24-year-old Marumo Gallants midfield general Masindi Nemtajela is seen as a natural successor to the impressive but ageing Makhehlene Makhaula. The all-action schemer claimed a goal, two assists and four yellow cards in 17 league outings last term.

Orlando Pirates move for Rulani
38-year-old Rulani Mokwena will be the next Orlando Pirates manager, according to several local sources. The former Sundowns head coach oversaw 35 matches with Wydad Casablanca in a spell that lasted under 10 months. He returned an average of 1.60 points per game in that sample. Mokwena held assistant and caretaker manager roles at Pirates from 2017 to 2019.
Is Nemtajela Orlando Pirates material?
