Orlando Pirates have continued their busy transfer window by confirming the signing of Bulelani Sigomoshe from Milford FC.
The 26-year-old right-back joins the Buccaneers with immediate effect and becomes the club’s 13th signing of the current transfer window.
Pirates say Sigomoshe’s arrival will provide additional depth and competition within their defensive ranks as the club prepares for a demanding campaign across multiple competitions.
SIGOMOSHE MAKES THE MOVE FROM MILFORD
Sigomoshe made a name for himself as a dependable defender during his spell with Milford FC.
His performances during the 2026/27 campaign included a 7.2 Sofascore rating in Milford’s 1-0 victory over Magesi, while he received a 6.8 rating in the match against Richards Bay.
His match performances have also pointed to a strong defensive work rate, with his game involving regular tackling and an ability to contribute when operating from deeper positions or pushing forward as a wing-back.
Pirates have not released a detailed breakdown of his full-season statistics, but his addition gives the club another option at right-back.
PIRATES CONTINUE TO REBUILD THEIR DEFENCE
The signing comes after a period of change in the right-back position at Orlando Pirates.
The Buccaneers have recently parted ways with Thabiso Lebitso, Bandile Shandu, Siyabonga Ndlozi and Deano Van Rooyen, leaving the club needing additional depth in that area.
Sigomoshe now joins the squad with an opportunity to compete for a place and establish himself at one of South Africa’s biggest clubs.
Pirates said his recruitment is part of their broader strategy to strengthen the squad as they pursue their objectives in all competitions.
The defender will immediately link up with the technical team and his new teammates as he begins the next chapter of his career.
