Orlando Pirates are set to complete the 2024/25 Premier Soccer League season with the MTN8 title and second place. Interim coach Mandla Ncikazi believes it was enough to collect a few gongs.

ORLANDO PIRATES COACH MANDLA NCIKAZI ON THE UPCOMING PSL AWARDS

According to the former Maritzburg United defender, Orlando Pirates supporters should expect at least three awards for players like Nkosinathi Sibisi, Deon Hotto and Tshegofatso Mabasa.

“A Goalkeeper of the Season might come out of our club. A Defender of the Season might come out. [Nkosinathi] Sibisi has a big opportunity, [Deon] Hotto has a big opportunity. Tshego [Tshegofatso Mabasa] is chasing the leading goal scorer.

“There’s still a possibility. Nothing is confirmed until the end,” the Orlando Pirates tactician said via iDiskiTimes.

“So, for me, there’s so much to play for, the history. But on top of everything these are professionals. They are paid to play and train.

“There’s no game that has got no impact especially if you play for a team like Orlando Pirates,” concluded Ncikazi.
