Rantie, who was on loan at Bucs last season, stole the headlines when he scored three goals in extra time to help Malmo defeat Sandviken 6-3 in the Swedish Cup yesterday.
The Bafana Bafana striker is on loan to Malmo from another Swedish side, IFK Hassleholm.
Speaking to KickOff.com from Sweden this morning, Rantie says he will have to keep scoring.
"It was a great feeling to score three goals for my club yesterday," he says "I was happy to be on the scoresheet; that will only help boost my confidence.
"I'm very happy that I've been given the opportunity to play and I'm grateful for that ... I really want to thank my teammates for the support they gave me throughout the game.
"I'm glad that I repaid the coach's faith in me with a hat-trick – I will just have to continue doing that!"
The Free State-born striker also confesses that he misses Pirates, but says life goes on.
"I do miss Orlando Pirates and the club will always have a special place in my heart," he says.
"I would have loved to continue playing for them but things couldn't go according to my wishes.
"However, I am glad that now I am back in Sweden and I want to help my new team achieve success this season."




Your comments on this story...
if that jounarlist who "interviewed" you told you that they opted for Ntofoh instead of you im sure you wouldnt have utter that statement
He will be here next season
The ''One round deals" ......are not recognised in Europe .......
"I do miss Orlando Pirates and the club will always have a special place in my heart," he says.
Every time he does well , A SUPERBRAND ORLANDO PIRATES will be right next to him, he will continue making us proud.
Rantie u will always have a special place at BUCS.
Anyway, Once a Pirate Always a Pirate.
I wont be surprised if it is 2million RANDS...
They are saying their chairman is business minded by letting go of this young prospect and getting MbeSUMO Wrestler instead...#SMH#
The previous Sunday's game against SSU proved that Izindangala FC do miss Rantie's firepower...
Rantie is this generations young predator while Mbesuma is 2004/5's super striker....
How much did they pay for Ntofontofo or maybe his annual salary?

Khoslam they paid 10 million kwachas, whic is equivalent to to R6000.
Feelosopher (The Balotelli of Kick Off.com): Do u know what where the conditions of his loan move to Pirates, Do you have an idea why Chiefs rejected him and his mentor took him to Pirates.
Even today, no one knows the insight of the deal yet people cast numbers around R2MILLION, even Marawa tried to play safe on this one.
The nice part about this is, Pirates paved this way for this boy and he is proud of Pirates and stil wish to play there.
Malmo has been given a loan deal with the option to buy outright but Rantie will tell them he is home sick at the end of his contract and walla, Pirates wins yet again.
The question is: will Nyandoro and Mwanjale with a combined age of 76 be able to stop Nkhatha?
