When it comes to finding fresh talent, Orlando Pirates aren’t taking any chances.
They’ve set their sights on a teenage sensation from Zimbabwe—Prince Ndlovu—and they’re gearing up to watch him closely at the upcoming COSAFA Cup.
It’s clear they know this young attacker well and want to keep tabs on his progress firsthand.
Scouts Ready to Watch Ndlovu in Action
According to sources at Soccer-Laduma, Pirates will have scouts present during the COSAFA Cup matches to monitor Ndlovu’s performances with the Zimbabwe national team.
The club is reportedly happy with what they’ve seen so far and see this tournament as a crucial opportunity to assess him live before making any firm decisions.
Ndlovu, who currently plays for Highlanders FC, has already caught the attention of several clubs.
But Pirates’ interest shows they’re serious about bringing in promising players who can make a difference in the squad down the line.
Pyramids FC Brace for Big Offers on Star Striker Fiston Mayele
While Orlando Pirates focus on young talent, Pyramids FC are dealing with a different kind of challenge.
The recently crowned CAF Champions League winners might be losing their star striker, Fiston Mayele, due to huge salary offers from other clubs.
The 30-year-old Congolese forward was a key player in their victorious run, scoring vital goals in the semi-finals against Orlando Pirates and netting one in the final against Mamelodi Sundowns.
With nine goals in 13 Champions League appearances this season—bringing his total to 22 goals in 37 matches in the competition—Mayele is definitely on the radar of many teams looking to strengthen their attack.
