Pilato joins BMC

BMC public relations officer Parks Buthiyi revealed that they hope to seal the deal this week. "I can confirm that Pilato will join us for the coming season. We hope to seal the deal in the next few days," Buthiyi said. BMC are also said to be on the verge of signing Gunners' skipper, Mmipi, Motlakase Power Dynamos' midfielder Hillary Madzivanyika and Burundian striker Christopher Ndayishime.

However, signing Mmipi may prove to be difficult for BMC as the player is said to be having a running contract with Gunners. "We obviously have to consider the contractual positions of the other players that we are interested in because we don't want to get into trouble," Buthiyi said in reference to Mmipi.
