The 26-year-old defender joins the Buccaneers with immediate effect as the club continues to strengthen its squad.

“Bulelani Sigomoshe joins the Buccaneers with immediate effect, adding further depth and competition to the Club’s defensive options,” Orlando Pirates said.

He becomes the club’s 13th signing in the current transfer window.

BULELANI SIGOMOSHE IMPRESSES AT MILFORD FC

Sigomoshe established himself as a reliable member of the Milford FC defensive unit during his time at the club.

His performances during the 2026/27 season included a 7.2 Sofascore rating in Milford FC’s 1-0 victory over Magesi. He also recorded a 6.8 rating against Richards Bay.

Detailed season-wide statistics for his passing accuracy and completed tackles are not fully available through standard PSL data trackers.

His match logs indicate a strong defensive work rate. He averaged around two to three key tackles per game, while his passing completion was approximately 75% when playing out from the back or moving into wing-back positions.

Orlando Pirates say the signing forms part of their efforts to strengthen the squad as they compete across multiple competitions.

“Sigomoshe’s acquisition forms part of the Club’s ongoing efforts to strengthen the playing squad as the Buccaneers continue to pursue their objectives across all competitions,” the club said.

The defender will immediately join the technical team and his new teammates as he begins his career at Orlando Pirates. The Buccaneers have welcomed Sigomoshe to the club and wished him success in the famous black and white.

His signing became urgent after the club parted ways with four right backs. The list included Thabiso Lebitso, Bandile Shandu, Siyabonga Ndlozi and Deano Van Rooyen.
