Orlando Pirates forward Thembinkosi Lorch has been linked with a move to Europe, however the Soweto giants are said to be reluctant to release their star player.

Lorch, who won the Player of the Season award at the end of the 2018/19 campaign, is said to have attracted interest from clubs in France and Belgium.
The Bafana Bafana player’s latest Instagram post on smoking marijuana (which he has since deleted) has many believing the player is frustrated about Pirates refusal to let him go overseas.
Football fans who believe that Pirates should let Lorch go have started the #FreeLorch hashtag on social media.
Dear Mr Khoza,
We can’t afford to see Lorch turning into Thandani Ntshumayelo because of you. Please #FreeLorch pic.twitter.com/fl5TkRHlWE
