Orlando Pirates' new signings a threat to Mamelodi Sundowns' PSL dominance - Makhanya

Former Orlando Pirates winger Joseph Makhanya says the signing of defender Thulani Hlatshwayo and midfielder Deon Hotto can help the Soweto giants break Mamelodi Sundowns’ dominance in the Premier Soccer League (PSL).

Pirates announced the signing of Bafana Bafana captain Hlatshwayo and Namibia international Hotto from the now-defunct Bidvest Wits as coach Josef Zinnbauer kicked off his transfer business.

The pair’s arrival is expected to add more steel to the Buccaneers’ defence as well as widening Zinnbauer's attacking options.
