DONE DEAL: Otladisa Signs for New Club Following Buccaneers Exit

Published on by

Katlego Otladisa is heading back to familiar territory following a failed move to Durban City, as per iDiski Times.

The talented winger, who previously starred for Marumo Gallants, has rejoined the club on a free transfer after a difficult spell with Orlando Pirates

FRESH START FOR OTLADISA

For Otladisa, this move represents a fresh start and a return to the place where he truly made his name.

His journey has been a whirlwind. After a standout 2022/23 season with Gallants, where his creativity and pace helped the team reach the CAF Confederation Cup semi-finals, he secured a dream move to Orlando Pirates. 

At the time, he was one of the most sought-after players from that relegated Gallants squad.

But the move to Pirates didn't go as planned. Opportunities were scarce, and he struggled to find his rhythm, ultimately making only 12 appearances for the club. 

A loan spell at Sekhukhune United offered a brief reprieve, where he managed to bag two goals and one assist in 11 games, reminding everyone of the talent that first caught the eye of the big clubs.

Now, he's back at the club that knows him best. With Marumo Gallants currently sitting ninth in the DStv Premiership under new coach Alexandre Lafitte, Otladisa's return is seen as a major coup. 

The two-year deal shows the club's faith in his ability to reignite his career and help them climb the table. It's a second chance for a player hoping to rediscover the form that made him a star.
