Monnapule Saleng will wear an Orbit College jersey next season. The latest sounds coming from the player suggest his Orlando Pirates adventure is over.
27-year-old winger Saleng has been out of the picture for the Sea Robbers and hasn’t played a single game for them in 2025.
His loan move to Orbit College sees him reunite with some old friends.

Monnapule Saleng sounds bullish and happy about a change of scenery after a difficult 18 months with Orlando Pirates.
“I am very happy to be back home. Going back to Orbit after a great campaign they had—and that I could come back—makes me happy. Being home is something that brings happiness.”

Meanwhile, Thabiso Monyane sounds positive about his new Soweto chapter with Kaizer Chiefs. Only time will tell whether he’s made the right move in terms of trophy success, but he’ll certainly get more game time after becoming a fringe player behind Deano van Rooyen and Thabiso Lebitso at Pirates.
“I’ve been received well by the technical team, the players and the staff, arriving from the other side of Soweto. “It has been a breath of fresh air, and I am embracing a new culture.”
