Matsatsantsa sign Lepasa

SuperSport United on Tuesday announced the signature of Orlando Pirates forward Zakhele Lepasa on loan until the end of the season.

The 26-year-old played a vital role to help TS Galaxy win the 2018/19 Nedbank Cup before securing a move to Orlando Pirates the following season.

Lepasa was part of the Buccaneers squad that won the MTN8 trophy twice in three seasons (2020/21 and 2022/23) and narrowly losing out on International glory, ending up runners-up in the 2021/22 CAF Confederation Cup.

The speedy attacker made his Bafana Bafana debut in the Cosafa Cup in 2019 against Botswana and will look to add to his four Bafana Bafana caps during his Matsatsantsa stay.

Zakhele Lepasa on joining Matsatsantsa, “I am very excited to be here and I’m hoping to add value in the team especially upfront and getting results. I am looking forward to meeting the Matsatsantsa fans this weekend when we play Cape Town City and I promise to give my all during my stay.”
