Deadline day saw a trio of notable PSL transfers go through. Here they are with all the details, including a major coup for Orlando Pirates.

 

Deadline Day saw three major PSL transfers go through to bring a close to the extended winter window.

If you see a Pirates fan smiling today, you’ll probably know why after reading this.

TRANSFER RECAP

LYLE LAKAY: SUNDOWNS TO CAPE TOWN CITY

This is a move that makes a lot of sense for all three parties. Lakay is now third-choice left-back for the Brazilians with the talented Terrence Mashego having arriving at the club from Cape Town City. The additional presence of Sifiso Ngobeni made Lakay’s prospects of first-team minutes even slimmer.

ABDELMOUNAIM BOUTOUIL: SC MOHAMMEDIA TO SUNDOWNS

24-year-old Boutouil will make history by becoming the first Moroccan to play in the PSL. A noteworthy achievement indeed, and Sundowns fans will be excited to get a glimpse of their new “defensive rock” in action.

NDABAYITHETHWA NDLONDLO: GALLANTS TO ORLANDO PIRATES

Orlando Pirates pulled off a coup in the market by nabbing 27-year-old midfield schemer Ndabayithethwa Ndlondlo from Marumo Gallants. He immediately upgrades Jose Riveiro’s options in the centre of the park and adds some much-needed creative spark.

Who was the winner of the winter window? Pirates and Sundowns definitely got some cracking business done.
