A decision is close to being made on where veteran striker Ndumiso Mabena is likely to play next season after parting ways with Orlando Pirates.
After a shock move back to the Buccaneers in January, following his much publicised exit from Royal AM, Mabena found himself as a free agent at the end of the season when he was released from the Soweto giants alongside the likes of Craig Martin, Nkanyiso Zungu, Ntsako Makhubela and Kopano Thuntsane.
