Benni's agent in talks with Pirates

Arcoding to Kickoff, Benni McCarthy’s agent, Rob Moore, is currently in negotiations with Orlando Pirates over the player’s proposed move to the club.

Moore is currently in the United States, but frantic trans-Atlantic negotiations are underway at the moment, with the parties hoping to have something finalized by either late tonight, or early on Tuesday morning.

McCarthy recently returned to South Africa and started training with Ajax Cape Town, but has made it clear that he would prefer a move up north, especially the opportunity to join Pirates and become the first player ever to win both the Uefa and CAF Champions League titles.

Speculation was further fuelled when McCarthy was seen watching the Carling Black Label Cup with Bucs chairman Irvin Khoza at Soccer City, with KickOff.com reporting that the player again met with the Iron Duke the following morning.

Mamelodi Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs are also known to be interested, but it seems Benni's heart is set on Pirates. Soccer Laduma
