‘The club has started discussing his future with his parent club SuperSport United,’ a source told the Mgosi Squad.
Orlando Pirates are keen on making Thalente Mbatha’s move to the Buccaneers permanent.
According to a Mgosi Squad informant, Pirates coach Jose Riveiro and his technical team have made a decision on the signing of Mbatha on a permanent deal just after a short time at the club.
Mbatha only joined Pirates on loan from SuperSport in January.
The coaches convinced Pirates management to work on a deal with SuperSport as soon as possible, and there have already been talks with the side from Pretoria.
‘He is a top player’
The 24-year-old Mbatha signed a six-month loan deal, with an option to buy.
“Everyone can see that Mbatha has been exceptional for Pirates, he is a top player with great qualities. He is a good sportsman with a great attitude and eagerness to learn. I think that’s what makes him stand out among his peers,” said a source.
“The club has started discussing his future with his parent club SuperSport United and a deal is close.”
