In the relentless quest for depth and quality, Orlando Pirates are turning heads with their latest midfield prospect. The Buccaneers have invited the seasoned Siphelele Luthuli to their training grounds. So, what does he bring to the table?
Picture this: Siphelele Luthuli, in full stride, commanding the midfield for Chippa United. His presence on the pitch isn’t just notable; it’s formidable. With 109 matches under his belt in the Premier Soccer League, Luthuli, at 29, brings a wealth of experience and a cool-headed approach to the game.
Coach Jose Riveiro faces a pivotal decision as Luthuli begins training with the Pirates, aiming to secure a spot in the starting eleven. Known for his versatility and composure, Luthuli has previously showcased his talents at the University of Pretoria, Bloemfontein Celtic, and Chippa United.
Hailing from Durban, Luthuli has been a free agent since parting ways with Chippa United in July. His availability has not gone unnoticed, with iDiski Times’ Lorenz Kohler reporting on his trial at Orlando Pirates.
As Riveiro contemplates adding another midfield dynamo to his roster, here’s a quick glance at the current midfield lineup:
- Makhehlene Makhaula
- Thalente Mbatha
- Selaelo Raseboja
- Miguel Timm
- Ndabayithethwa Ndlondlo
The question on everyone’s mind: Will Siphelele Luthuli be the latest Buccaneer to bolster the squad’s midfield might? The anticipation builds as the Sea Robbers consider their next move.
