PIRATES TRIO FACIN LIKELY DEPARTURES OUT OF MAYFAIR
Goodman Mosele, Katlego Otladisa, Karim Kimvuidi and ‘Gilberto’, aka, Deivi Vieira are all facing likely departures out of Mayfair.
So, Pirates midfielder Mosele is set to join PSL rivals Chippa United on loan.
“He’s not the only one from Pirates that will be loaned to Chippa, but I can tell you for sure that Goodman has been shipped to Chippa. I’m not sure what this means for his future going forward if he does well, because at 25, age is still on his side,” the report read on Phakaaati.
Meanwhile, as reported on The South African, Otladisa, Kimvuidi and ‘Gilberto’ are all linked with probable departures.
This is because all of these players have fallen down the Bucs pecking order under Abdeslam Ouaddou.
MORE SIGNINGS UNLIKELY BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE
Pirates have signed a total of 12 new players so far.
Meaning, they have secured most of their new signings. They have secured depth in every single position with these new signings to be rotated. Finally, this is who Ouaddou is likely to start and who he will bench out of the new Pirates players.
