Orlando Pirates could be on the verge of missing out on one of their reported transfer targets for next season, the Siya crew has been informed.
Siya sources have indicated that Marumo Gallants forward Daniel Msendami has caught the attention of European clubs. The Zimbabwean was recently linked with interest from the Buccaneers, as previously reported by Soccer Laduma.

The new developments indicate how there is competition from overseas teams to sign him. This has left Pirates needing to up their efforts if they hope to secure his services.
"That's true. There has been an enquiry from Europe. He has been doing well and I am not surprised that there is interest in him even from Europe. But at the moment we can't be talking much about that. Let's wait until the end of the season," the Siya source stated.
A second insider stated that interest in Msendami isn’t limited to Europe. Teams from the PSL and even North Africa are reportedly monitoring the 24-year-old’s situation as well.

"He could have joined a bigger PSL team when he came from Botswana but things didn't work. But that PSL interest is still there and there is also interest from North African teams. When all is right you will know everything," the second insider told the Siya crew.
Msendami has been a bright spot for Marumo Gallants this season. His performances have drawn widespread praise, further elevating his value as a transfer target.
When contacted for comment, Gallants spokesperson Sello Nduna stated, "No official enquiry has been made to the club," without confirming or denying the rumoured interest.
