Orlando Pirates get slapped with R15 million asking price!

Orlando Pirates are heavily linked with Zimbabwean teenager Prince Ndlovu and have been informed by Highlanders FC that they will need to cough up R15 million to acquire his services.

“Highlanders FC value Prince (Ndlovu) and that’s why they are pricing him at around R15million,” a source revealed.

“For now this price is believed to be directed at South African team Orlando Pirates because apparently they are the ones who have enquired about his services. Highlanders believe it’s a fair price looking at his talent, quality and future ahead of him.”

Meanwhile, Orlando Pirates target Rowan Human has rejected AmaZulu’s contract extension, making him a free agent from July 1.

“AmaZulu FC midfielder Rowan Human has been offered to Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs by his representatives as he is set to leave the club on a free transfer. Human will leave Usuthu at the end of June after his contract expires after the 24-year-old failed to reach an agreement with the club on a new contract,” a source revealed.

“Human has been offered to both Soweto giants by his representatives and it could only be a matter of time before he gets snapped up as he will be a free agent and rediscovered his old form.”

New signing confirmed

Baroka FC’s chairman Khurishi Mphahlele has confirmed that defender Tshepho Mashiloane has signed with Orlando Pirates.

“We still got to pay Mashiloane until the end of June, but Orlando Pirates have purchased Mashiloane for the coming season, not this season,” Mphahlele informed iDiski Times.

“But if Pirates want Mashiloane earlier there’s no problem we’ve got an agreement with Pirates. We can always make provision for that, but we are going to pay Mashiloane at the end of June because his contract ends at the end of June and the Pirates contract begins on the first of July.

“From the first of July he is an Orlando Pirates player, until then he’s still our player and we pay him.”
