Orlando Pirates announce the departure of another star

Orlando Pirates have confirmed the departure of midfielder Karim Kimvuidi, who has secured a season-long loan move to Israeli side SC Ashdod. The 23-year-old's exit comes after a challenging spell in Soweto, marking the second Pirates player to move abroad this transfer window following Mohau Nkota's switch to Saudi Arabia.

The club announced the deal ahead of their crucial MTN8 semifinal clash against Mamelodi Sundowns. According to the statement, Ashdod holds an option to make Kimvuidi's move permanent at the end of the loan, potentially extending his stay for an additional three years.
