Orlando Pirates-bound Fortune Makaringe confirms Maritzburg United exit

After helping Maritzburg United retain their status in the Premier Soccer League (PSL), midfielder Fortune Makaringe has bid farewell to the Team of Choice ahead of his move to Orlando Pirates.

The Vosloorus-born attacking midfielder says he will miss the Pietermaritzburg-based team and he thanked club chairman Farook Kadodia.

“Yes, it was goodbye for me. The chairman [Farook Kadodia] always tell us he will always allow us to grow as footballers. It’s very emotional for me because this team took me from nowhere,” Makaringe told SuperSport TV.

Makaringe helped Maritzburg secure a win over Tshakuma Tsha Madzivhandila in the PSL promotional/relegation play-offs match at the Harry Gwala Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
