Thabiso Monyane has made the move from Orlando Pirates to Kaizer Chiefs. Is it a good one for his career?
Monyane spent 13 years with the Buccaneers but fell down the pecking order in the right-back position.
The 25-year-old leaves after a decorated spell for a different type of project.

Thabiso Monyane sounds positive about his new Soweto chapter with Kaizer Chiefs. Only time will tell whether he’s made the right move in terms of trophy success, but he’ll certainly get more game time after becoming a fringe player behind Deano van Rooyen and Thabiso Lebitso at Pirates.
“I’ve been received well by the technical team, the players and the staff, arriving from the other side of Soweto. “It has been a breath of fresh air, and I am embracing a new culture.”
