As Mamelodi Sundowns continue to offload some of their fringe players, other clubs are expectedly enquiring about the players they would like to sign from Chloorkop.
One such team is Orlando Pirates, who according to Siya sources, have supposedly enquired about talented, out of favour midfielder Lesedi Kapinga.

As earlier reported by the Siya crew, Sundowns are probably ready to send Kapinga out on loan and clubs like SuperSport United and AmaZulu FC were speculated to be interested in his services.
A source very close to the situation told the Siya crew that Pirates are possibly interested in the former Black Leopards midielder but they know he is still contracted to Sundowns.
"It's a bit tricky for all parties involved. Sundowns have indicated that they can loan him out for next season because his contract runs until June 2025," the Siya source said.
"But at the same time, Pirates don't want him on loan. They want him permanently. They say they cannot get a player on loan from Sundowns, but they are interested in him.
"They have enquired about him. That's true. But at the moment nothing much has happened," the source added.
Another Siya source stated that if the negotiations go well between Pirates and Sundowns then it could possibly involve Vincent Pule going in the other direction.
"It will all depend on the talks as who would want to involve their player in the deal. At the moment, it's not clear if an exchange of players plus money will be involved in the deal. We know Sundowns also want Vincent Pule and Pirates have enquired about Kapinga.
"So, we are just waiting to see what really happens at the end of the day," the source observed.
Since joining Sundowns in 2020, the 28-year-old has featured but in the recently completed campaign, he only played in five league matches. Neither Pirates nor Sundowns officials were available for comment at the time of publishing this article.
