According to a source, Pirates are believed to be considering a loan deal for the striker, when the transfer window period re-opens in January.
"Pirates are open to release the player on loan. Pirates and Chippa have enjoyed a good relationship regarding exchanging players and this could work in favour of Chippa Mpengesi this time," said a source to KickOff.
The Chilli Boys are reportedly preparing to sell goalkeeper Stanley Nwabili and midfielder Thabiso Lebitso and are also assessing Swazi international Kwakhe Thwala from Mbabane Swallows.
