In the next few days, Orlando Pirates is anticipated to announce a player transfer while another is scheduled to go on loan!
The Chilli Boys and The Buccaneers have a great relationship, and it appears like it will only get better.
Who can forget, after all, when the Orlando Pirates loaned a coach to Chippa United?
And it now appears that Siphelo Baloni, who recently signed, will be the most recent player to leave Mayfair to join Chippa United.
Baloni made 14 appearances for Orlando Pirates after joining the team at the start of the previous campaign.
But Jose Riveiro has decided that he is surplus to requirements, so he will be sent out on loan to get some much-needed playing experience.
Siphelo Baloni, a midfielder with the Orlando Pirates, is close to signing a season-long loan with Chippa United, according to a report from SABC Sport.
“It is agreed upon that the documentation needs to be completed by the end of the week.”
According to Transfermarkt, at least 45 players have made permanent or loan moves to Chippa United over the previous 20 years.
In other relevant news, there’s still a chance that an offensive player for the struggling Orlando Pirates will go before the transfer window closes.
Zakhele Lepasa, a striker, has plummeted in Mayfair’s hierarchy, and at this point, leaving the team might be his only option.
If Lepasa stays with the Orlando Pirates, he will likely see little playing time because Tshegofatso Mabasa is playing well and Evidence Makgopa is next in line.
Furthermore, it makes perfect sense for Lepasa to go back to Matsatsatsantsa given the impending strike problem at SuperSport United!
Lepasa previously spent the 2022–2023 season on loan at SuperSport United. In ten games, the gifted striker netted two goals to help revitalize his career in Tshwane.
The newest transfer rumors claim that Lepasa is pressing for a return to United!
