Orlando Pirates midfielder Miguel Timm is fully back from his long injury layoff. CAF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE GAME IN IVORY COAST According to the fixtures, the Sea Robbers are in West Africa to face Stade D’Abidjan on Saturday at 18:00. Timm has revealed that Orlando Pirates are feeling confident and fearless after the two opening games.
The first was a 2-1 win over CR Belouizdad in Algeria, followed by the goalless draw against Al Ahly in Soweto. “We are going there with the same confidence as we opened this group stage, and we have the quality to do so and are looking forward to it with no fear – as we have shown in the past two games,” Timm said via IOL . “I don’t think we are the favourites, to be honest.
But it eases the pressure off us, and allows us to express ourselves more easily,” the Orlando Pirates midfielder added. ORLANDO PIRATES’ THABISO SESANE TO FRANCE? Orlando Pirates supporters should not be too surprised. Thabiso Sesane has reportedly attracted interest from Ligue 1.
Following the 24-year-old 37 games for the Buccaneers since 2022, as well as his Bafana Bafana call-up, Soccer Laduma believes Ligue 1’s bottom-place Montpellier are interested in signing the Soweto-born central defender. “They are looking for a young but experienced defender and now with Pirates playing in the CAF Champions League it is actually good for Thabiso,” the source revealed. “It’s good because he is gaining the valuable experience that Montpellier are looking for.
It will work to his advantage. Also with call-ups to Bafana Bafana, soon he will start playing and things will go well for him.” WOULD THIS BE A GOOD MOVE FOR THABISO SESANE? Let TheSouthAfrican know by clicking on the comment tab below this article or by emailing info@thesouthafrican.
