Makgopa: No Orlando Pirates or Mamelodi Sundowns offers for Baroka FC striker

Some PSL giants are believed to be circling around the 21-year-old forward, who enjoyed a stellar 2020/21 season

Baroka FC chairman Kurishi Mphahlele says no team has approached them for striker Evidence Makgopa's services amid reported interest in the player from Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns.

Makgopa witnessed his profile drastically improve in the just-ended season when he was named the campaign's best young player after scoring seven goals in 28 league starts, before making his Bafana Bafana debut last Thursday.

The forward immediately made an impact by grabbing a brace after coming on as a second-half substitute in an international friendly match against Uganda and that appeared to have heightened interest in him with most reports pointing at Pirates.
