Orlando Pirates have officially parted ways with striker Zakhele Lepasa.

There have been speculations surrounding his future at the club but a decision has since been made on his future.

Lepasa joined the Buccaneers from TS Galaxy back during the 2018/19 season and also spent a stint on loan at SuperSport United.

However, Lepasa spent most of the 2024-25 campaign on the injury list, limiting his playing time.

The 28-year-old scored 15 goals and registered two assists in 64 appearances in all competitions in his five years at Pirates.

The Soweto-born attacker leaves pirates as a free agent and is free to join a team of his choice.

“Thank you Zakhele Lepasa for your commitment and contribution to Orlando Pirates,” Pirates said in a statement.

“Wishing you the very best in your next chapter.”
