Orlando Pirates coach Josef Zinnbauer has confirmed the imminent signing of Ghanaian striker Kwame Peprah.
The 21-year-old is expected to sign a permanent contract after undergoing the mandatory medical.
He is expected to be announced as the club's new signing once paperwork is sorted out.
The starlet had an outstanding season in Ghana, where he notched 12 goals and provided 10 assists in 32 matches.
“Yes, I want to see him,” Zinnbauer said on Wednesday when asked about Peprah during Pirates' MTN8 pre-match media conference ahead of Saturday's Soweto Derby clash with Swallows FC.
“He has his medical check now. I can’t say more, he is not at the training session now.”
The Buccaneers are looking to find a replacement for Makusu, who failed to make an impact at the Soweto giants
