Orlando Pirates are preparing for significant changes to their squad in the upcoming January transfer window.
With plans to bolster their team by signing multiple new players, the club is expected to send several current players out on loan.
Among those likely to leave temporarily is midfielder Lesbia Nku.
Sources close to the club have revealed that management views the loan strategy as a way to provide players with more opportunities for consistent game time.
This decision aligns with recommendations from the technical staff, who believe a loan spell will help players like Nku regain full match fitness and maintain form following his recovery from injury.
Nku, 28, joined Orlando Pirates last season from Marumo Gallants and quickly made an impact during his debut campaign. He showcased his talent in numerous matches, delivering solid performances and contributing several goals to the team.
The loan move is seen as a strategic step to ensure the midfielder remains active and competitive, positioning him for a strong return to the squad in the future.
As January approaches, fans will be watching closely to see how these roster changes unfold and what impact they will have on the Pirates’ ambitions this season.
