The astute transfer business done by Orlando Pirates in refreshing their squad in the post Jose Riveiro era came with the club spending on some of their recruits.
Pirates have brought in Sipho Mbule, Sihle Nduli, Tshepo Mashiloane, Yanela Mbuthuma, Sinoxolo Kwayiba, Masindi Nemtajela, Tshepang Moremi, and Nkosikhona Ndaba with Malian midfielder Abdoulaye Mariko also already at the club.

One signing of interest for Bucs is Sinoxolo Kwayiba, who has made the switch after spending two years at Chippa United.
Kwayiba plays in midfield with his function in attacking spaces, which allows him to have an influence in the creation and scoring of goals.
That ability has not only won him that big move to the Soweto giants but already attracted Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos’ eye of wisdom.
This website has since gathered Pirates’ bill for Kwayiba will come to R7 million.
This transfer fee will carry a sell-on percentage for Pretoria Callies – the Motsepe Foundation Championship club from where Chippa signed him two years ago.

Kwayiba has signed a three-year contract with the club, which improves on what he was earning at the Chilli Boys.
The 25-year-old will hope the move to Pirates enables him to keep establishing himself in the Bafana squad.
