MATROSE ADVISED TO GO OFF LOAN
Azola Matrose is another player who was even anticipated to go on loan at the beginning of the current campaign. Some anticipated that the youthful midfield player would return for another loan stint after his successful one at Chippa last season. To many’s astonishment, nevertheless, he remained at Pirates, vowing to fight for his position.
Since then, Matrose has missed the majority of the season due to a significant injury. After coming back, he has primarily played for the DDC side. Since then, a source has provided an explanation for why he hasn’t yet made the senior side of the Pirates.

Why hasn’t he broken down at Pirares?
“The club is considering losing Azola (Matrose) for the upcoming season.” They want him to get game time because he is still a young player. They want him to go and get experience somewhere so that he can return to the team a better player since there are now a lot of guys in his position and it will be difficult for him to break through. He has been playing for the DDC team under Joseph Makhanya for the majority of the season for this reason as well. He has been performing admirably, but they intend to loan him out since they want him to be a regular player for a team in the DStv Premiership next season. The source informed Soccer-Laduma.
