Preparations for the Upcoming Season

The Buccaneers embarked on a pre-season training camp in Spain to prepare for the upcoming DStv Premiership season. They also faced La Liga side Las Palmas. The team’s preparations have been fruitful, as they remain unbeaten in their four pre-season games.

Strong Statement in the Upcoming Campaign

The signing of Karim Kimvuidi is a clear indication of Orlando Pirates’ intentions to compete for the league title. With a solid midfield roster and a strong pre-season performance behind them, the Orlando Pirates’ upcoming campaign is shaping up to be an exciting one. The addition of Kimvuidi could very well be the key ingredient that propels the Buccaneers back to the top of South African football.
