Pirates to offer Royal AM Mhango for Letsoalo?

'I have heard they might be offering Mhango and other two players as part of the deal,' reveals the source.


Orlando Pirates are said to have reopened their negotiations for Royal AM’s redhot striker Victor Letsoalo. It is believed Pirates tried to lure the Bafana star in the past transfer window but their advances were thwarted by the Thwihli Thwahla club.

But with current co-coaches insisting that they need Letsoalo, Pirates have reopened negotiations and according to a source have added Gabadinho Mhango and other two players to sweeten the deal. 

“The coaches really want Letsoalo especially (Mandla) Ncikazi who is a long time admirer of the striker. They have presented to management that they must try to get him and they would then have a formidable squad.

“I have heard they might be offering Mhango and other two players as part of the deal. I am not sure who the other two players are at the moment,” said the source.

Phakaaathi reported last week that Mhango was unsettled at the Buccaneers following his suspension due to ill-discipline issues. There were some murmurs that the club would release the Malawian.
