Daniel Msendami could join this club on a loan move from Orlando Pirates

Zimbabwe international Daniel Msendami could be set for a temporary move away from Orlando Pirates just months after joining the South African giants.

According to reports from KickOff, the Buccaneers are expected to discuss Msendami’s future as part of their ongoing transfer business, with a loan move emerging as the most likely option ahead of the new season.

Msendami to join another club?

The report further states that Zimbabwe Castle Lager Premier Soccer League leaders Scottland FC are among the clubs interested in securing the 25-year-old winger’s services on loan.

Msendami only arrived at Orlando Pirates from Marumo Gallants earlier this year, following an impressive spell in the Betway Premiership and strong performances for the Zimbabwe national team, the Warriors.

While Scottland FC are keen to bring the winger back home, Orlando Pirates are expected to make a decision before the transfer window closes.

A loan move is currently viewed as the most practical option to ensure Msendami gets regular first-team football and continues his development.

Difficult season for Msendami

Msendami faced a challenging first season at the Soweto giants as he battled for game time in a highly competitive squad.

Despite the pressure of adapting to a new club, the Warriors international also had to cope with the emotional pain of losing his child during the season.

His title medal now represents more than just football success, but also a personal tribute to his late daughter.

Shortly after Pirates secured the championship, Msendami shared an emotional message on his WhatsApp status alongside a picture of himself and his late daughter.

“This is for you my child,” he wrote.

The player lost his daughter in March when she was just two months old.

The tragedy struck only weeks after the Zimbabwean forward completed his move to Orlando Pirates from Marumo Gallants.

From Highlanders setback to PSL champion

Msendami’s football journey has not been straightforward.

The talented winger progressed through the junior ranks at Highlanders F.C. but failed to break into the club’s senior team.

He experienced his major career breakthrough after moving to Botswana’s Jwaneng Galaxy in 2022, where he won two consecutive league titles and was named the 2024 Botswana FA Cup Player of the Tournament.

He eventually earned opportunities in South African football, where he continued to grow into one of Zimbabwe’s promising attacking players.

Following a short, impressive stint with South Africa’s Marumo Gallants, his rapid development culminated in a high-profile transfer to the Soweto giants, Orlando Pirates

Winning the Betway Premiership with Orlando Pirates now marks one of the biggest achievements of his career.
