Orlando Pirates striker Kwame Peprah is facing an uncertain future with the club, the Siya crew has been informed. In January, the Buccaneers decided to send the 22-year-old Ghanaian on loan to Maritzburg United after he struggled for regular game-time under Jose Riveiro.
Despite having finished as the top goalscorer in his first season with the club, Bucs sent Peprah on loan after he moved down the pecking order following the arrival of new players who were signed in January.
So far at the Team of Choice, Peprah has featured in four matches, including the 2-1 loss against Pirates in Orlando last month. He has scored one goal for the Pietermaritzburg-based outfit.
According to sources, the Soweto giants are considering sending the player on another loan when he returns as part of the plans for next season.
“Peprah is facing uncertain future with Pirates and could be sent on loan again for next season. It is something that is being considered and he could be offered to Maritzburg or any other interested club on a season-long loan deal as Pirates might need to open space in their foreign quota for possible new additions,” said the source.
Peprah signed a three-year deal when he arrived at Orlando Pirates from Ghanaian side King Faisal in 2021, and his contract with the Buccaneers runs until June 2024.
