Should Orlando Pirates decide against keeping goalkeeper Siyabonga Mpontshane at the end of the season, then Polokwane City are understood to be hot favourites to snap up the veteran when his contract is up.
The 38-year-old signed for the Buccaneers almost a decade ago from the now defunct Platinum Stars and has seen the club go through a list of goal minders while he stayed on and being used by different coaches.
Mpontshane is well-liked by his teammates as evidenced by his only appearance in the DStv Premiership this season when he came off the bench to replace the injured Sipho Chaine in the 7-1 thrashing of Golden Arrows.
