Sipho Mbule, Bafana Bafana

'I hoped Mbule would go to Siwelele; How much will he earn in Iraq?' - Fans

Following the announcement of a move to an Iraq Stars League club, the South African football fraternity has expressed heartfelt messages for the fans' favourite, who was once expected to re-establish himself as one of the most talented and exciting players to watch. This came after he joined Orlando Pirates following a disappointing stint with Mamelodi Sundowns and a short loan spell at Sekhukhune United. However, his flair-filled return to prominence proved short-lived at the Soweto giants, where the 28-year-old struggled for consistent game time under Abdeslam Ouaddou.

What sparked Chippa's escape? - 'There was quality to get the result from Chiefs'

The Chilli Boys once again defied the odds to retain their Premier Soccer League status, sealing survival with a crucial final-day win over the Soweto giants to avoid the relegation/promotion playoffs. In typical fashion, chairman Siviwe 'Chippa' Mpengesi made a daring late-season call by appointing Brandon Truter just a week before the decisive clash, a move that proved inspired as the Eastern Cape outfit completed another remarkable escape.

Mbule signs for Middle East club

Despite links to Siwelele and Kaizer Chiefs, the 28-year-old's agent insisted recently that the best option for the player nicknamed "Master Chef" was a fresh start away from the South African top flight. And so it has come to pass after an Iraq Stars League club has announced his signing.
