Promoted to the first team, Mthethwa made over 20 official appearances for the Pirates, leaving an indelible mark with his discipline and professionalism.

His commitment to the game and the club has been a testament to his character, both as a player and as a role model.

A New Beginning Beckons

As Mthethwa embarks on the next stage of his football journey, Orlando Pirates extended their gratitude and well-wishes.

The defender’s next move is eagerly anticipated, with fans and analysts alike curious about where his career will lead.
