BREAKING: Orlando Pirates announce new coach!
Orlando Pirates remain in the hunt for Jose Riveiro's successor; however, they have announced the retainment of Mandla Ncikazi, who took over the reins (as interim coach) at the end of last season. The 56-year-old, who will remain in the team's technical setup department, managed four games for the Buccaneers, winning once and drawing on three occasions. 'Coach Mandla Ncikazi has served the club well and professionally in the different roles and for that he is valued highly,' a source confirmed. 'Moreover, he has a contract with the club until next year and he is allowed to stay until then. Part of the plans include him continuing to serve in the technical team for next season.' Meanwhile, former target Rowan Human has confirmed that he will not sign a new contract with AmaZulu FC, opening the door for Orlando Pirates. '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.' Orlando Pirates tried to sign Human in January, and it appears they will try again this winter. Let us know by leaving a comment below, or send a WhatsApp to 060 011 021 1.

Pirates news: R15 million, free agent opportunity, captain saga
Orlando Pirates are on the verge of adding several stars to their already talented squad, boasting playmakers from Relebohile Mofokeng to Patrick Maswanganyi. According to reports, the Soweto giants will need to pay R15 million for teenage target Prince Ndlovu. '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 are left without a captain following the release of Innocent Maela – highly-rated defender Nkosinathi Sibisi is among the favourites to get the armband. AmaZulu playmaker Rowan Human has informed his club that he will not be signing a contract extension, making him a free agent in the offseason window and opening the door for Pirates, who were reportedly interested in the 24-year-old back in January. '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.
