Now, information coming through is that the club is eyeing Tshepang Moremi, who is in the last year of his contract with AmaZulu FC.
However, it is still not yet clear if the 24-year-old still has an option on his current deal after joining the Durban-based outfit in 2022 from Bizana Pondo Chiefs, who were relegated from the second tier a few years ago.
Meanwhile, another target is Tshepo Mashiloane.
He can operate both as a right-back and central defender, and currently calls Baroka FC home.
According to a source close to the Soweto giants, the club has already made a concrete move to bring both Moremi and Mashiloane to their Rand Stadium training base come pre-season.
"The negotiations between Orlando Pirates and Baroka FC over the services of Mashiloane are almost done," said the source.
