Happy Jele, the legendary captain of the Orlando Pirates, may be departing the Soweto giants. Actually, his future is now being discussed, and it doesn’t seem good.
Despite the fact that the Pirates’ greatest exit currently appears likely, the transfer window is far from over.
The Bucs’ management is now debating Jele’s future in meetings. According to Unplayable, it is becoming more probable that the veteran with a 400+ cap will go.
Jele is the Buccaneers’ current captain and the team’s only remaining legend.
Like its rivals, Kaizer Chiefs, the club would have to choose a new captain if he were to go. In order to replace Bernard Parker, Amakhosi must choose Itumeleng Khune to serve as interim captain.
He may be named the permanent captain by Kaizer and Bobby Motaung, Arthur Zwane, and Dillon Sheppard, but only time will tell.
This is a significant choice for the Buccaneers and undoubtedly the largest for Jose Riveiro and Mandla Ncikazi.
BIG DECISION❗❗❗#UNPLAYABLE sources reveal that the future of Orlando Pirates captain Happy Jele is in serious doubt at the club.
