Orlando Pirates Diski Challenge side’s star defender Yanga Madiba has earned the breakthrough he’s desperately been chasing.
The talented full-back has reportedly been offered a long-term first team contract at the Buccaneers!
“They have already made that decision. For now it’s as good as done and it’s believed to be a three-year contract which would apparently run from July this year until June 2028,” a Soccer Laduma report read.
“He is still young and they want him to grow and gain experience while learning from the older players.”
The publication further claimed that management at Orlando Pirates view Madiba as the perfect replacement for aging captain Innocent Maela.
Is it time for Maela to leave?
