Former Orlando Pirates midfielder Vincent Pule has reflected on his time at the club, penning down an emotional goodbye message on Wednesday.
On Tuesday, Pule parted ways with the Buccaneers after six successful years in the colours of the SA football giants.
The 32-year-old won two Nedbank Cups and three MTN 8 trophies while at the club. And a few hours after his departure, at Pirates, clubs are already gunning for Pule’s services. There has not been an official communication in terms of his next destination but he is linked with a move to Sekhukhune United.
In an Instagram post, Pule took time to thank the Soweto giants for giving him the opportunity to showcase his talent.
“I would like to take this opportunity to express my thanks. To the chairman, Dr Irvan Khoza, thank you for the opportunity you gave me to be part of such an amazing institution,” said Pule.

“To the management and technical team, your dedication, expertise, and tireless efforts behind the scenes have been nothing short of remarkable. My fellow players, it has been an honour and a privilege to share the pitch with such a talented and passionate group of individuals.
“The bonds we have formed both on and off the field will always hold a special place in my heart, and I am grateful for the memories we have created together,” he said.

“Thank you once again for everything, and know that I will always cherish the time we spent together.”
Pule spent the better part of last season on the sidelines nursing an injury. He returned to action towards the end of last year and made only a few appearances.
