Latest On Mabasa's Contract & Why He Didn't Play Against Downs

Orlando Pirates are expected to make a decision on the future of striker Tshegofatso Mabasa. 

Mabasa returned to the Buccaneers in January from a loan spell with Moroka Swallows where he did well.

The 27-year-old scored six goals for the Dube Birds in 13 matches in the league and appeared to be enjoying his football again in the first half of the season.

The Botshabelo-born player has been with Bucs since 2019, having joined the club from Bloemfontein Celtic.

He previously spent time with Sekhukhune United where he was on loan in the 2022/23 season.

With the player's contract set to expire in June, sources have indicated that the Soweto giants are planning to exercise their two-year option on the deal.

"He is in the plans despite being previously loaned by the club. The club is aiming to keep him beyond this season," said the source.

Mabasa was not in the matchday squad for the weekend's game against Mamelodi Sundowns which ended 1-1 at Loftus Versveld Stadium as Bucs coach Jose Riveiro opted to start with Bafana Bafana striker Evidence Makgopa who was later replaced by Souaibou Marou in the second half.
