Staying true to his nickname, Simiso “Msebenzi” Bophela’s hard work has paid off, taking him from the Orlando Pirates Reserves to a deserved spot in the senior team.

The midfielder spent the 2020/21 season away on loan at Sekhukhune United, where he played a hand in the Club’s promotion to the top-flight.

He is eager to help the Buccaneers win more titles, and dreams of one day playing in Europe.
