Orlando Pirates Football Club have officially announced the signing of Kamogelo Sebelebele, the dynamic winger/midfielder from TS Galaxy, marking a major coup ahead of the 2025–26 Premier Soccer League (PSL) campaign.
Sebelebele, aged 22 (born 21 July 2002), enjoyed a standout 2024–25 season in which he scored 4 goals and registered 3 assists in 22 starts for TS Galaxy in the PSL, contributing significantly to his club’s attacking thrust . His versatility—operating as a right winger, left winger, and even right-back—has drawn strong interest from several top South African clubs.
Orlando Pirates completed negotiations late last week, edging out rival clubs including Mamelodi Sundowns to clinch the youngster’s signature . The Buccaneers have not yet disclosed the transfer fee or contract duration, but sources suggest Pirates have secured Sebelebele on a multi-year deal as part of their extensive road‑map to challenge for top honours.
Described as a creative, impact-driven performer, Sebelebele is known for his direct dribbling, crossing ability, and positional flexibility. He is a regular starter for TS Galaxy and has already represented South Africa at national level, earning his first Bafana Bafana call-up in 2025 . COSAFA Cup coverage highlighted his standout performances including a Man of the Match showing where he “caused havoc” in defence and netted key goals.
This signing underscores Orlando Pirates’ aggressive recruitment strategy this off‑season. After securing names such as Sipho Mbule, Yanela Mbuthuma, Nkosikhona Ndaba, and others, Sebelebele joins a wave of fresh talent intended to bolster the squad and challenge perennial title rivals Sundowns next term . Analysts believe the signing of this young, high‑potential star reflects Pirates’ commitment to youth integration alongside experienced recruits.
Pirates head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou praised the acquisition, calling Sebelebele “a hungry, skillful addition who brings energy and creative flair to the flanks.” For Sebelebele, moving to one of South Africa’s biggest clubs offers a platform to elevate his game, attract international interest, and contribute to Pirates’ ambition of ending their recent runner‑up finishes.
With pre-season underway and competitive fixtures approaching, supporters of the Buccaneers now await Sebelebele’s debut. The club hopes a new generation of stars including this rising TS Galaxy talent will re‑ignite their title push in the 2025/26 season
