Pirates star wants out of the club

A source in the Orlando Pirates camp has revealed that winger Thabo Rakhale might be on his way out in the January transfer window or by the end of the season should things go his way.


According to the source, Rakhale is no longer enjoying his football at the club and wants a new challenge in his career to help him grow as a player.
