"What I can tell you for now, apparently is that it's believed that's these four players could be the ones to leave. The club is working with all the involved parties to look at the way forward so that they can reach an amicable solution where it is needed. So far the four players are on the list and are expected to leave at the end of the season," the Siya source stated.
When Lepasa was recovering from his injury earlier this year, Soccer Laduma understood the club was keen to give him a chance to prove himself at Pirates. However, Siya sources close to the player have now indicated that Bucs' stance has changed since then.
A second insider discussed how outgoing players would make way for new arrivals in the winter.

"Some of the players who are going to be released are set to open up space for new arrivals. The club has already identified players to be signed and that's why they are believed to be set to release some players including these four to open up space," the second insider revealed.
The Buccaneers are believed to have already made moves for new talent, including Baroka FC's midfielder Kabelo Kgositsile with a long term contract starting in July this year, as reported by Soccer Laduma.
Soccer Laduma contacted Pirates for comment but the club had not responded by the time this report was published.
