Orlando Pirates stand on the brink of major changes as both Jose Riveiro and Innocent Maela, who served as the head coach and captain of the Buccaneers, have departed. Now the club must find their replacements, and several strong candidates have already emerged.
Details: The captaincy seems more straightforward, with two clear frontrunners: Tapelo Xoki and Nkosinathi Sibisi. In fact, club legends share this opinion. The coaching situation, however, is a bit more complex.
Pitso Mosimane, Rulani Mokwena, Benni McCarthy, and Mankoba Mngqithi have all been linked with the Orlando Pirates job. The latter two are currently unavailable as they are committed to other clubs. Mosimane is the fans' favorite, while Mokwena is also available after leaving his previous post.
Reminder: Previously, even some rather exotic candidates were mentioned, such as former RB Leipzig head coach Marco Rose.
