Orlando Pirates-Jaedin Rhodes rumours
“He (Rhodes) has been one of their (Pirates’) targets for some time now,” SoccerLaduma reported.
“They have been monitoring him although there hasn’t been a lot taking place. They had been focusing on him for the January switch window interval.
“Now that it didn’t happen they have more time to work on it and will see what happens in the next window. But they are interested in him. That I can tell you.”
Another PSL supply near SL confirmed the information, saying, “clearly, they (Pirates) will both mortgage some out or launch some as effectively. But that’s the time they should work on their squad and because it didn’t occur in January then they are going to work on it within the off season. Rhodes is one participant on that record already.“
Riveiro retains it blunt on Saleng
Orlando Pirates coach Jose Riveiro gave nothing away when requested about Monnapule Saleng, saying, “I don’t speak about the health of my players; it’s something that belongs to a private space. And the moment that the club feels that it’s the time to speak about which players are injured, how long they are going to take, and which moment of the process (of recovery) they are in, they will do it. It’s not part of my job description, (and) it’s not an ethical thing,” the Buccaneers coach said.
“I know it will be nice to know how close is Olisa [Ndah] or [Goodman] Mosele and what’s happening with Saleng but it’s not going to happen.”
