Reports Suggest Ndumiso Mabena Is Still Adjusting to Life at Orlando Pirates!

Reports Suggest Ndumiso Mabena Is Still Adjusting to Life at Orlando Pirates! The veteran striker has recently signed with the club.

Ndumiso Mabena is yet to feature for Orlando Pirates since re-joining them as a free agent in December 2022. This is allegedly because he is still acclimatising to his environment.

At the beginning of the campaign, Royal AM terminated the contract of Ndumiso Mabena. He started training with Orlando Pirates to keep fit until the club eventually signed him.

However, he has not yet played a single minute for The Buccaneers.

“Look, I know everyone has been asking why Mabena is not playing, but the thing is you just can’t put anyone in the team to play,” an insider revealed to Phakaaathi.

“Remember that it’s a team, we have a system, and the coach has a plan. He has to understand how the team plays and that’s when he will get his chance to play.

“He is a very mature person. He knows what the coach wants, and he has been one of those players who are very vocal when the team does bad, that’s what the coach likes about him.

“Even at training, he is always giving his best to show that he wants to play. You will soon see him playing, and I think there will be a lot of goals coming from him,” the source spoke.

Competition for a place in The Buccaneers first eleven is extremely strife. Reports Suggest Ndumiso Mabena Is Still Adjusting to Life at Orlando Pirates!
