Coach Jose Riveiro and his technical team are preparing a loan deal, with Chippa United being the most likely destination for Mosele. SABC Sport reported, “Orlando Pirates are set to send midfielder Goodman Mosele on loan for the duration of the 2023/24 season.”

Fans’ Reactions

Many fans believe that this move could be beneficial for the 23-year-old midfielder, while others criticize the decision, deeming it disheartening as Mosele was once a regular player on the team. Social media reactions from the Buccaneers’ fandom are a mix of support and disapproval.

One fan, @BizarMzie, questioned the decision on Twitter, saying, “Why Mosele? What about Makhaula? This guy is better than Monare and Makhaula.” Another supporter, @Mthobisi Zungu, commented, “Good decision, Mr. Back passes every time. Aubaas is on the way, I smell something here.” Meanwhile, @Mosala Mosala expressed his disappointment, stating, “This is such a bad decision, this has been a regular player at Pirates, it’s only last season where he had a difficult season due to injuries. Sending him away on loan is disheartening, considering the talent he has.”

Aubaas’ Potential Arrival

Amidst the discussions, speculation regarding Aubaas’ potential arrival grows. While it remains uncertain whether he will join the team or not, the excitement surrounding South African football continues to captivate its loyal fanbase.

In conclusion, the ultimate fate of Mosele and Aubaas remains uncertain, leaving the Orlando Pirates’ fans to debate the potential repercussions of these decisions. Whether the loan move will benefit Mosele’s career or Aubaas will join the team, the excitement surrounding South African football continues to captivate its loyal fanbase.

Airbnb brings in lots of money and jobs, and even if all Airbnbs disappeared, it wouldn’t fix the big housing shortage. The city needs to build more homes and make it easier to do so, not just point fingers at tourists.
