The Orlando Pirates are stepping up their approach to attract the services of the highly promising Katlego Otladisa. The Pirates are looking to strengthen their attack, and Otladisa is a player who could meet their needs.
According to local press, the Pirates could be ready to pay an immediate transfer fee for Otladisa. The Bucs have already even met with the 26-year-old’s representatives. However, the Gallants had previously resisted interest from Kaizer Chiefs and Pirates to retain their player. But the possibility of a potential sale is still on the table as the player enters his final year of contract. Otladisa signed a three-year contract with the Gallants in July 2021 after leaving Mamelodi Sundowns.
Although he remains on the club’s shelves until June 2024, the Gallants will either have to sell him now or extend his contract to have a say in his future. Otladisa’s representative, Nimrod Mbhalati, would not confirm or deny the Pirates’ interest, saying it was a delicate and sensitive matter. And this, given the current situation of the Gallants in the league.
