Pirates Youngster Sets Sights On Overseas Move

Orlando Pirates defender Siyabonga Ndlozi has set his sights on an overseas move after securing a three-year contract with the Soweto giants, sources have revealed.

The 22-year-old, who was promoted to the senior team this season, is determined to use his time at the Buccaneers as a stepping stone for greater opportunities abroad.

Ndlozi has been one of the standout young talents identified by head coach Jose Riveiro and has quickly adapted to top-flight football.

Operating as a right-back, he has made seven appearances in all competitions so far this campaign, including consecutive starts in the League and Nedbank Cup against Chippa United and SuperSport United.

The young defender has already gained invaluable experience at the highest level, making his first-team debut in the CAF Champions League against Egyptian powerhouse Al Ahly in January.

His performances have not gone unnoticed, and sources indicate that he is focused on solidifying his place in the Pirates squad to boost his chances of securing a move abroad. 

With his contract providing stability, Ndlozi is eager to continue his development and impress on the big stage.

As he progresses at Pirates, the talented full-back remains hopeful that his dream of playing in Europe will soon become a reality.

"That's how high he is aiming, believe it or not. He is a very confident player, and his dream is to play overseas. The first move was to break into the Pirates first-team, and now that has been achieved, he is working on cementing his place in the team to boost his chances of a European move," said the source.
