Pirates’ Pre-Season Plans In Overdrive, New Acquisition?

Orlando Pirates' pre-season plans are in overdrive, with the Soweto giants understood to be closing in on a new acquisition to add to the team.

With the Buccaneers set for a pre-season camp in Spain where they are scheduled to play three competitive matches between July 12 and July 19, the club has been expected to appoint a new coach to be the second assistant in Jose Riveiro's technical team following the departure of Sergio Almenara at the end of the season.

O'Brien has done well as a performance analyst for Stellenbosch FC where he has contributed to the club's success, including this past season's Carling Knockout triumph.
