Gwandu confirms potential Bucs move

The Pirates' technical team was running the rule over the former Gaborone United (GU) defence stalwart and his teammate Terrence Mandaza in the past week. The duo, who returned to Botswana on Friday, clearly impressed Bucs' coach, Ruudi Krol and are only waiting to put pen to paper.

In fact, Gwandu has told Mmegi Sport the deal was meant to be finalised last Thursday but Pirates chairman, Irvine Khoza, could not make it for the meeting. The Pirates' boss is the chairman of the World Cup Local Organising Committee (LOC) and is apparently busy with preparations for the World Cup that kicks off in a fortnight's time.
