Barker’s R10 million checkmate on Pirates
STELLENBOSCH, SOUTH AFRICA - AUGUST 05: Stellenbosch FC coach Steve Barker looking on from the touchline during the DStv Premiership match between Stellenbosch FC and Orlando Pirates at Danie Craven Stadium on August 05, 2023 in Stellenbosch, South Africa.
From as far back as towards the end of last season, the rumour mill swirled with the news that the Soweto giants were hot on the heels of the highly rated right-back.On Monday, Pirates killed the speculation by announcing the acquisition of the stocky player on a three-year deal, with an option to renew for two more years.
For starters, number one choice based on form, Thabiso Lebitso, suffered an injury during the club's pre-season tour of Spain, being on the receiving end of a nasty challenge by an Al Sadd defender. He should be back soon. The inconsistency of Monyane was laid bare in a poor MTN8 quarterfinal performance against SuperSport United, which would have led to heightened desperation to get the Van Rooyen deal over the line as soon as was possible.
