Orlando Pirates responded decisively to the departures of key defensive personnel by securing two promising full‑backs: Ndaba on the left and Mashiloane on the right. Their long‑term contracts highlight the club’s plan for stability and development in the backline.
Recruiting both players before their new head coach’s arrival (Abdeslam Ouaddou) suggests a renewal strategy grounded in proactive squad building. Ndaba’s youth and technical upside, coupled with Mashiloane’s versatility, offer a solid foundation for defensive consistency and growth.
Let me know if you’d like a deeper dive into either signing, how they compare with their predecessors, or an overall assessment of how the revamped defense stacks up heading into the 2025/26 season!
