READ: Revealed: Why Dolly Missed Chiefs Showdown
“For now they want to loan him out since his contract is only expiring in June 2026. So with that in mind, they want him to go on loan and make the final decision at the end of the season. But after releasing Sandile Mthethwa and loaning out Katlego Otladisa there are few more movements still expected at the club,” the second insider told the Siya crew.
Shandu had his standout season in 2021/22 after joining from Maritzburg United, playing all 30 league games.
However, his appearances have decreased over time, featuring in not many games last season, and he is yet to appear in this campaign after recovering from injury.
As Pirates navigate their squad restructuring, Shandu’s future hangs in the balance. The club’s strategic decisions on player movements will dictate his next steps, ensuring Bucs maintain a balanced and competitive roster going forward.
Soccer Laduma contacted Pirates for comment but the club had not responded by the time this report was published.
