Why Jele should remain Orlando Pirates captain despite Hlatshwayo signing - Manenzhe

The Soweto giants recently beefed up their squad with the signing of former Bidvest Wits captain Thulani Hlatswayo.

Hlatshwayo, who is also Bafana Bafana captain, led Wits to the Premier Soccer League (PSL) title, Telkom Knockout Cup and MTN8 triumphs as team captain.
