Orlando Pirates will compete in the Betway Premiership without Monnapule Saleng for the first time in three years.
The 27-year-old from Bloemhof, North West, has left the club on loan after delivering 25 goals and 17 assists in 70 games since June 2022.
According to Orlando Pirates’ rather shocking statement, Saleng has moved to his former club Orbit College on a season-long loan.
