Former Bafana Bafana and Orlando Pirates defender Siyabonga Sangweni believes his former side must sign Bidvest Wits centre-back Thulani Hlatshwayo.
Hlatshwayo has been heavily linked with a move to the Buccaneers, who are in dire need of a central-defender after releasing both Marcelo and Abubakar Mobara to Chippa United and Cape Town City respectively.
Wits have reiterated Hlatshwayo remains their player and they have no intentions to sell, but Sangweni feels Pirates need the Bafana skipper to assist Happy Jele at the heart of the Soweto giant's backline.
"It is difficult to pinpoint exactly the ideal defender for Pirates right now," Sangweni told Goal.
