Special Orlando Pirates squad number available, big signing loading?
Orlando Pirates have let go of three senior players as they look to upgrade their playing personnel before the Betway Premiership season. Paseka Mako, Miguel Timm and Thabiso Monyane have left Pirates. The club are proactively looking at options in the market, including Tshepho Mashiloane and Masindi Nemtajela. Paseka Mako, Miguel Timm and Thabiso Monyane are no longer with the Sea Robbers. As a result, numbers 29, 4 and 2 are available to be handed to new signings. Most Buccaneers fans will remember that jersey number 4 once belonged to the great Happy Jele. Who's got big enough footsteps to fill it next? RUMOURS: Rulani return, 'Prince' to save the club millions Orlando Pirates have moved quickly to secure a replacement for the departed Miguel Timm. 23-year-old Masindi 'Confidence' Nemtajela is the man. The all-action schemer made 17 appearances for Gallants in the league last season, scoring once, supplying two assists and picking up four bookings. With Makhehleni Makhaula having signed a one-year contract extension, a move for Nemtajela is a proactive long-term solution for when Makhaula leaves the club. His profile and style certainly fit the jersey. Kaizer Chiefs in advanced talks with Paseka Mako Is Nemtajela the long-term successor to Makhaula?

Kaizer Chiefs XI next season with Mako, Salum, Appollis, Okon, Mayele
Kaizer Chiefs are looking to bolster all departments of their playing personnel this winter. Is this how their XI could look? Tanzanian goal-scoring midfielder Feisal Salum is a long-standing target. Meanwhile, Chiefs are contemplating moves for out-of-contract Orlando Pirates stars Thabiso Monyane and Paseka Mako. Bvuma; Miguel, Okon, Dortley, Mako; Cele, Salum; Lilepo, Duba, Appollis; Mayele. This exciting-looking XI would see Inacio Miguel shifted to a slightly unfamiliar right-back role, although the Angolan has played there before. A central pairing of Ime Okon and the hopefully fit-again Rushwin Dortley would have a combined age of only 44. Paseka Mako could prove to be a shrewd addition even if he only has two years left at the top level. Further up the pitch, Feisal Salum, Oswin Appollis and Fiston Mayele add goal-threat galore. Kaizer Chiefs top brass make their move for exciting young defender Pyramids striker Fiston Mayele. Image: Sydney Mahlangu/BackpagePix According to SABC Sport, 31-year-old Paseka Mako is in advanced talks with Kaizer Chiefs over a winter move. Stellenbosch full-back Fawaaz Basadien was initially their first choice. However, the Winelands club is reluctant to sell the Bafana man, whom they see as an indispensable member of their squad. It's somewhat of a surprise that Pirates let go of Mako. The nifty left-back made 26 appearances in the 2024-2025 campaign. Meanwhile, 34-year-old Deon Hotto faces an uncertain long-term future.
