Orlando Pirates to miss Olisa Ndah for rest of the year

Soweto giants Orlando Pirates have revealed that influential centre-back Olisa Ndah has been ruled out of action for the rest of the year due to injury.

On Monday, the Buccaneers said that Ndah suffered a tibia fracture during a match against Polokwane City last month and will need a long time to recover.

This is a significant setback for the Sea Robbers as they prepare to face newly promoted Magesi FC in the Carling Knock-out Cup on Saturday.

The Soweto giants recently made history by being the first team to win the MTN8 title three times in a row and are now aiming to add the Carling Knockout Cup to their collection.
