Maritzburg United announce the signing of Tlolane from Orlando Pirates
Maritzburg United have announced the signing of Orlando Pirates defender Tebogo Tlolane on loan until the end of the season.
The 28-year-old left-back returns to the KZN outfit for the second stint after finding it hard to break into the regular starting line-up.
“Maritzburg United Football Club is delighted to announce the acquisition of Tebogo Tlolane,” Maritzburg United confirmed on Friday.
Tlolane signed for Ezimnyama Ngenkani in 2019 after an impressive spell with Chippa United.
He has only two appearances under his name this season while he has made seven since he joined Pirates.
Meanwhile, he amassed more than 30 appearances in all competitions during his first stint at the Team of Choice.

“Firstly, I am grateful for the opportunity I’ve been given to represent the team again,” Tlolane told the club’s media.
“I have good memories with the Team of Choice and I hope to create more and be the best that I can be and help the team do well”
Fadlu Davids believes Tlolane’s versatility will be a boost to his side as he can be utilised in the attacking midfield.

“Having him back in the team is a huge boost to our squad,” Davids said.
“His attacking prowess and playmaking abilities will complement our striking force and give us the dimension that we need in our attack.
“Having worked with him, I know that he will make a positive impact upon being given an opportunity”
Moreover, Tlolane reportedly started training with Davids’ troops in the midweek. He could be in line to make his second debut for the club against AmaZulu in a DStv Premiership on Friday.
The match will take place at the Harry Gwala Stadium with kick-off set for 19:30.
