Orlando Pirates announce amicable Ncikazi departure amid rift speculation
Orlando Pirates have revealed they have parted ways with assistant coach Mandla Ncikazi who is set to take over a head coach role with a Premier Soccer League side.

The 38-year-old attacker joined the Cape winelands-based club as a free agent ahead of the 2026/27 season following a stint with Sekhukhune United.
Grobler currently sits behind Namibia and Young Africans forward Peter Shalulile [134] on the PSL all-time top goalscoring list with 130 goals.
He has made seven appearances since joining Stellies, scoring once in the only full match he has played this season in the 1-1 draw against former side Sekhukhune.
Head coach Hunt has opened up on his expectations from the striker, having previously worked with him at the now defunct SuperSport United.
"I said to Bradley the most important thing when you're getting older in football do you still want to come to training, do you still want to do it every day but once you lose that then you must retire," said Hunt to reporters.
"But he still wants it; he is obviously pushing for that PSL record, I will try to help him get there. He needs us; we need him because he can do it.
"He's got one already and there's still a long season to go. He trains every day; he looks okay, obviously he's not gonna play 90 minutes every game."
Grobler has started three of the seven matches he has appeared in this season.
