Orlando Pirates Eager to Sign Dayo

Orlando Pirates are eager to sign Dayo and include him in Jose Riveiro’s squad for the upcoming season. This move is especially significant as the Houghton-based club anticipates its long-awaited return to the CAF Champions League.

Competition from European Clubs

The Pirates face stiff competition from European clubs, particularly in France, who have also expressed interest in the talented defender. The likelihood of Dayo extending his stay with RSB Berkane appears slim, as his current contract is set to expire at the end of this month.

Dumisani Zuma: A Free Agent

Former Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Dumisani Zuma finds himself a free agent once again. Recent reports suggest that AmaZulu has chosen not to extend Zuma’s contract, leaving the 27-year-old open for a new opportunity.

The Transfer Window Approaches

As the transfer window approaches, the Orlando Pirates’ pursuit of Dayo and Zuma’s availability as a free agent are likely to garner interest from numerous clubs. The outcome will ultimately shape the trajectory of their respective careers and the teams they represent.
