Orlando Pirates are chasing a Kaizer Chiefs target while there’s been a new update on the future of manager Jose Riveiro.
Riveiro is homesick
Jose Riveiro’s Pirates contract expires at the end of the season. The Spaniard could leave the club after a trophy-laden spell that’s seen him win five major honours in less than three seasons. Reports circulating indicate that the 49-year-old is homesick and wants to be with his family in his native Spain.
However, speaking to Robert Marawa on 947 FM, Riveiro gave nothing away.

Makgopa discusses mental toughness as Bafana clashes loom
Bafana meets Uganda in Kampala on Friday 15 November at 15:00. Then they host South Sudan in Cape Town next Tuesday at 18:00. Evidence Makgopa will hope to be heavily involved for Hugo Broos’ side in three two crunch Afcon qualifiers. Makgopa is back among the goals for his club and will be keen to replicate that form for his country.
Is Jayden Adams still a target for Orlando Pirsates?
The Buccaneers see 23-year-old Stellenbosch and Bafana midfielder as the perfect man to come in and rival Makhehlene Makhaula for a place in their engine room. With Sundowns also interested, Pirates are preparing an offer that includes cash, and Goodman Mosele is potentially moving to the Winelands as part of the deal. Mosele spent last season on loan at Chippa and minutes in the first team under Jose Riveiro this term have been hard to come by. Adams has two caps for South Africa and is highly thought of around the league.
