Orlando Pirates have made a statement with their latest signing, as they have secured the services of Stellenbosch captain Deano Van Rooyen, who was known for his outstanding defensive abilities in the previous season.
By bringing in the 27-year-old right-back, the Sea Robbers not only strengthen their own squad but also weaken a close rival in the process.
Van Rooyen’s impressive record of completing 57 tackles in the league last season, the highest in the country, showcases his defensive prowess and will certainly bolster Orlando Pirates’ backline.
With him now in contention for a starting spot alongside Thabiso Monyane, Pirates have added depth and quality to their squad, making them a force to be reckoned with in the PSL.
The acquisition of Van Rooyen not only strengthens Orlando Pirates but also deals a blow to their competitors, as they have signed a player who has proven his worth on the field and will undoubtedly make an impact on the team.
This signing significantly weakens PSL rivals and solidifies Orlando Pirates’ position as a top contender in the league.
