After a successful eight-year stint at Stellenbosch FC, Deano van Rooyen is on the brink of an exciting new chapter in his football career.
The 27-year-old right-back, who served as the captain of Stellenbosch, has been a crucial part of the team, helping them grow and compete at higher levels.
However, the time has come for him to embrace new challenges, and a big move is on the horizon.
Orlando Pirates’ Interest
Orlando Pirates, one of the top clubs in South Africa, has been eyeing van Rooyen for some time.
Their interest in him intensified, leading to negotiations between the two clubs.
Initially, Stellenbosch FC rejected the first offer made by the Buccaneers.
However, Orlando Pirates came back with a revised proposal that met Stellenbosch’s expectations.
This deal has paved the way for van Rooyen’s move to Gauteng, where he is set to join the Pirates.
The Next Steps
While the deal is nearly finalized, a few formalities remain.
Van Rooyen is scheduled to undergo a medical examination before the move becomes official.
Both clubs are expected to make announcements confirming the transfer soon.
For van Rooyen, this move marks the beginning of a new adventure with Orlando Pirates, where he will undoubtedly be looking to make a significant impact.
Van Rooyen’s departure from Stellenbosch is bittersweet.
Having spent nearly a decade with the club, he has built strong connections and memories.
But his decision to leave is driven by a desire to take on new challenges and continue his growth as a player.
As he prepares to don the black and white jersey of Orlando Pirates, Stellenbosch FC and its supporters will be cheering him on, grateful for his contributions and wishing him success in his future endeavors.
