Maritzburg show interest in out-of-favour Pirates midfielder

Maritzburg United are said to be looking at bringing Siphesihle Ndlovu back from Orlando Pirates even if it is on loan for now.


Ndlovu got a few runs in the Buccaneers during Rhulani Mokwena’s reign but has not been in the team since Jozef Zinbbaur took over.

“I am not sure if it is the player who approached the chairman to ask to come back or what happened but there is talk that he is coming back. The management will talk to Pirates about it to see if a deal cannot be struck for him to come back. He was a key player for the team and although they are doing well, they believe he could still make a meaningful contribution,” said a source.

Meanwhile, Pirates have confirmed that they are sending Justice Chabalala and Tebogo Tlolane out on loan for the remainder of the season.

Chabalala will be joining Bloemfontein Celtic, while Tlolane has been snapped up by Maritzburg United.
