It’s thought that Orlando Pirates have seen enough to decide what to do with one of their players who has been out on loan this season.
The Orlando Pirates are focusing on both incomings and outgoings as they make plans for the upcoming season.
During the January transfer window during the off-season, the Pirates signed a number of players.
They signed Katlego Otladisa from Marumo Gallants, Siphelo Baloni from All Stars FC, and Melusi Buthelezi from TS Galaxy. Karim Kimvuidi, Lesedi Kapinga, and Patrick Maswanganyi joined them. Then, in January, Thabiso Lebitso and Thalenthe Mbatha were added by the Pirates. Additionally, they offloaded a plethora of players during both windows, one of them being midfielder Goodman Mosele.
Mosele was a heralded signing when he joined Pirates from Baroka FC, who had been demoted. It took some time for him to finally get a look in. Even during the previous season, injuries caused him to join the club later than expected. When he did play, though, he left a positive impact. Because of his achievements, Mosele received his first Bafana Bafana call-up prior to a falling out with national team coach Hugo Broos. That didn’t stop them from dating, though, because they quickly made up and shared a kiss. The midfield player then carried on displaying his skills while wearing the Pirates uniform.
Mosele had a harder season last year since the inclusion of Miguel Timm and Ndabayithethwa Ndlondlo hindered his development. Not too long after the previous season’s conclusion, he made his injury return to the Pirates lineup. Then, at Orlando Stadium, he was injured against Mamelodi Sundowns and lost again. He would ultimately be loaned to Chippa United and would not be able to regain his position.
Since then, Mosele has performed well for Chippa, earning a spot back in the most recent Bafana Bafana team. Pirates appear to have been impressed by those performances as well, as Soccer-Laduma reports that they are acting quickly to extend his contract.
Pirates to Extend Mosele’s Contract?
“Mosele is merely a Chippa loan. He remains an Orlando Pirates player, and his future is entirely up to the Pirates. They have made the decision to extend his contract for a further two years, with one more year of option. Thus, he may theoretically remain with the squad till June 2027. It didn’t imply they didn’t need him when they lent him money. They desired for him to return to the field with greater playing time and confidence. And if you observe how he is functioning at Chippa right now, you can see that’s actually what has happened. The club has so come to a consensus and will present him with the new two-year contract, which includes a one-year option.
Will Mosele return to the Pirates and take his rightful spot in the starting lineup?
