Orlando Pirates have made yet another signing ahead of the start of the new season, snapping up defender Thando Mdluli on a three-year contract.

Mdluli, who spent the last six months at Bidvest Wits doing an impressive job in central defence after finding no joy at Jomo Cosmos, has an option of a further two years on the contract that he has signed with Bucs. He joins Pirates as a free agent as his contract with Wits had expired at the end of June," Moloto tells KickOff. The 25 year-old has made an impression at Pirates in the time that he has been training with them since Bucs reported back for training.

Pirates had been monitoring the burly defender since last season with the club watching the DVDs that were sent to them.

After viewing the tapes, they then decided to invite the player over for a closer look at him. Mdluli started out in the Wits juniors before playing in the amateur ranks for Everton and Manchester before landing at Cosmos at the beginning of last season.

He will now have to face competition from Rooi Mahamutsa, Zvenyika Makonese, Lucas Thwala and Lehlohonolo Seema for a place in central defence. Showing 41 - 60 of 99 results. The comments posted do not reflect the views of KickOff.

Sabelo, i understand ur frustration.

SL website says the deal is yet to be finalised. Who is this guy anyway? When will Mlungisi Mdluli, Seema, Walaza, Manyisa, Chiloane, Mhlambi, Mthombeni, Legkwathi, Mushangazhike, Mkhwanazi, Mabe, Tshabalala, et al be officially released. Why should Pirates buy players whereas they have a devlopment?

Or are they developing players until they reach age 24, and then promote them on their 25th birthday?

Come we want to see youngsters like the German National team. And it all starts at club level. Let Pirates set a stepping stone.

To answer your question Big teams needs to be signing ready and expirienced players. Not to promote inexpirienced development players to sit and fill our bench. Promising players can be loaned out to get game time and expirience, then return as fininsh product e. Tlou and Morton Pirates loaned out lot of players last season and most were development players but only 3 players impressed and are rightfuly recalled.

I don't know much about this Mdluli but all i can say is welcome 2 de Sea Robbers ship. Back - To - Back Trebble Champ Mopheme. You chimpanzees stop thinking with your ntotos and kukus, we don't need your inputs at OP our beloved Ezikamagebhula. Go advice your bosses at Zim Natulawayo Great move on signing Thando Mdluli I have watched this guy on Bidvest Wits and I must say this is a gain for the bucs. This guy is a slow poison dot under estimate his talent. How many players are we going to buy now before the season starts?

Is like now Pirates is made of more than 40 players and we are still signing, at least if some players can be put on transfer list or loaned it can be better.
