REPORTS: ORLANDO PIRATES TO SIGN CHIPPA UNITED GOALKEEPER
There seems to be a dramatic twist in the communications between the Sea Robbers and the Chilli Boys.
As The South African website reported on Thursday, Bucs were thought to be set on signing Chippa’s 33-year-old Lloyd Kazapua. A newer report now says the Soweto giants have their eyes on Kazapua’s reserve, Chaine.
“Orlando Pirates are believed to be in talks with Chippa United over the transfer of goalkeeper Sipho Chaine before the midnight deadline,” SABC’s Mazola Molefe reported.
“SABC Sport has learnt that if the move does go through, it would then be a cash transfer with Chaine added as cover to first-choice goalie Richard Ofori and Siyabonga Mpontshane.
“Though Pirates also have young Kopano Thuntsane on their books, the club is understood to be looking for experience for the remaining games of the 2022/23 season under head coach Jose Riveiro.
“Chaine, 25, fits the criteria and was at one point the preferred choice at Bloemfontein Celtic before the club was sold, relocated and renamed Royal AM,” the report added.
