Orlando Pirates are showing no signs of slowing down their transfer activity with news of another incoming!
Pirates are set to go back to Spain for the third time in a row this month for their preparations.
Pirates have already signed 10 players
So far during this transfer window Pirates have signed 10 players, with nine of those being officially announced. The first of these signings to be announced was the shock deal for playmaker Sipho Mbule. The player joins the Buccaneers as a free agent after being released by Mamelodi Sundowns.
Pirates went on to announce seven other players last week in Masindi Nemtajela, Nkosikhona Ndaba, Tshepo Mashiloane, Sihle Nduli, Tshepang Moremi, Sinoxolo Kwayiba and Yanela Mbuthuma. They then dropped another bombshell by announcing the signing of Oswin Appollis from Polokwane City. In doing so, beating arch rivals Kaizer Chiefs to the signature of the Bafana Bafana international.
Another player that Pirates have signed but are yet to announce is Malian midfielder Abdoulaye Mariko. While they wait to officially announce him as new signing number 10, they have reportedly wrapped up an eleventh!
Seema set to be signing number 11?
According to Unplayable, Pirates are set to welcome Lebone Seema from TS Galaxy!
“𝐄𝐗𝐂𝐋𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄
#UNPLAYABLE can reveal Lebone Seema [23] will join Orlando Pirates from TS Galaxy.
#UNPLAYABLE” they posted on their official X account.
Seema is a centre-back who was a regular in the Galaxy last line of defence in the previous season. He featured 30 times for the Rockets in all competitions and clearly impressed the scouts at Pirates. This move comes as a surprise as it follows no rumours or speculation.
Thoughts please Buccaneers?
It will now be interesting to see if Seema goes straight into the Pirates first team or goes out on loan. Buccaneers, what do you think of this signing? Let us know by clicking on the comment tab.
