Camren Dansin enjoying rapid rise at Orlando Pirates

Dansin made his senior debut late last season under Jose Riveiro, gradually finding his footing in the first team.

However, it is under Abdeslam Ouaddou that the youngster has truly begun to shine. Ouaddou's bold decision to start him in a high-profile clash against Mamelodi Sundowns paid off when Dansin netted a stunning goal, announcing himself as a player to watch.

So far this season, Dansin has appeared in eight matches across all competitions, registering a goal and an assist, while also celebrating two trophies: the MTN8 and the Carling Knockout Cup. Reflecting on his fast-paced rise, the midfielder described 2025 as "special."

"It's been a great year for me, achieving so much in such a short space of time. It's a very special year for me," the midfielder was quoted by Sportswire, as he highlights both his on-field contributions and personal development.

Dansin credits Ouaddou's coaching style for making it easier to perform and it's also because of a group the Bucs players have which is very supportive.

"With coach Ouaddou, all you need to do is apply yourself, work hard and the rest will happen," he said.

"We have a good group, the guys support each other, you never feel like you're alone. So, it's easy to apply yourself and show what you can do."

As Dansin continues to grow under Ouaddou's guidance, Pirates fans are beginning to glimpse the potential of a player who may soon become a mainstay in the midfield.
