Orlando Pirates are believed to be monitoring rising TS Galaxy star Khulumani Ndamane as they prepare for potential reinforcements ahead of the new season.
The 21-year-old centre-back enjoyed a breakthrough campaign, becoming one of the standout performers in the Betway Premiership, and Orlando Pirates did not miss that.
Despite having another exceptional youngster in Mbekezeli Mbokazi (19) in the same left-central defence position, Orlando Pirates, have reportedly identified Ndamane as a promising prospect with long-term potential, especially if Mbokazi earns a move abroad.

According to this report, the Buccaneers could compete with Babina Noko for Ndamane’s signature. “There are two clubs that have shown interest in the defender,” a source told Soccer Laduma. “Yes, there was interest from Europe, but I can’t say what really happened, but the enquiries from Orlando Pirates and Sekhukhune United are what stands out at the moment.

“So let’s wait and see what happens next on Ndamane,” the insider told Soccer Laduma. A second insider said: “As much as there has been interest and enquiries, it’s believed that Galaxy are making sure they hold onto him but since this is football, anything could happen.
“But if there is an overseas club that comes through, then that would be the first priority,” he concluded.
