Orlando Pirates have been one of the clubs that we had approached to give Ndumiso a chance, and indeed yes…he is training there, ” Motloung told Metro FM. “No, he is not on trial but maintaining his fitness and sharpness levels. As you would appreciate that he missed a lot of pre-season training. So, he is keeping in shape so that if an opportunity comes he is ready to play.
