Orlando Pirates fans aren’t in agreement on absolutely everything. News of a move for Masindi Nemtajela has drawn mixed reviews.
Marumo Gallants all-action midfielder Masindi Nemtajela could replace Makhehleni Makhaula at the base of midfield.
Sinoxolo Kwayiba is a target further up the pitch.
Seven signings in the bag for Pirates
Is Nemtajela good enough for Orlando Pirates?
One reader on The South African certainly doesn’t think so.

“Nemtajela for me is a miss. He is not Pirates material. I don’t know this Mashiloane. But both are average players. They are not better than what we have.”
Potential successor to Makhaula
24-year-old Marumo Gallants midfield general Masindi Nemtajela is seen as a natural successor to the impressive but ageing Makhehlene Makhaula. The all-action schemer claimed a goal, two assists and four yellow cards in 17 league outings last term.

Mofokeng on the move?
Orlando Pirates must accept that their prized asset, Relebohile Mofokeng, is wanted in a few corners of the globe. The Bafana Bafana wide attacker seems destined for a big-money move away from South Africa.
Eight new arrivals at Pirates?
The ever-reputable @UnplayableZA on X believes Pirates will unveil as many as eight new signings soon. Sihle Nduli, Kabelo Kgositsile, Tshepo Mashilone, Yanela Mbuthuma, Masindi Nemtajela, Nkosikhona Ndaba, Sinoxolo Kwayiba and Tshepang Moremi are all expected to be Buccaneers soon. There are also whispers that the club is keen to do deals for Neo Rapoo and Devin Titus.
