Orlando Pirates finished last season in second place, but the team is clearly determined to end Mamelodi Sundowns’ dominance—and for that, they need reinforcements. The club has set its sights on a highly talented footballer.
Details: We’re talking about U-20 Africa Cup of Nations champion Neo Rapoo. Insider Karabo Fasha reports that the Pirates have approached SuperSport United regarding a potential transfer for the young player. Furthermore, Orlando has already held talks with the left-back’s agents about a possible move.
Neo Rapoo plays for SuperSport United and was a key figure for South Africa’s national team at the youth Africa Cup of Nations, featuring in every match of the tournament and helping his side clinch the title.
The Pirates are also close to reaching an agreement with AmaZulu for the transfer of winger Tshepang Moremi. Orlando is actively pushing for this deal.
Reminder: Following recent reports of a conflict between Saleng and the Orlando Pirates management, it has emerged that the player and the club have sat down at the negotiating table.
