Pirates fans are excited by Pedersen
Orlando Pirates have signed 27-year-old Norwegian striker Sebastian Pedersen from Sogndal in his native Norway. Unfairly, some fans online have dubbed Pedersen the Temu Haaland. What does Pedersen’s arrival mean for Evidence Makgopa? One man who seems to be staying put is Oswin Appollis. This, despite rumours of an approach from FC Porto. Meanwhile, Abdoulaye Mariko arrived for action at the weekend sporting some stylish gear. The 24-year-old Malian midfielder attracted praise from commenters on Facebook for his pre-match outfit. A lot of people think it’s more suitable for church than training.
