Mntambo bids farewell to Bucs | Breaking News

Linda Mntambo has bid an emotional farewell to Orlando Pirates expressing his gratitude to all of those who have helped him throughout his stay at the Soweto giants.

The former Jomo Cosmos man spent three years at the Sea Robbers, having joined them back in 2018 from Chippa United.

The 33-year-old midfielder recently parted ways with the Happy People to join Limpopo outfit, Sekhukhune United.

Mntambo managed to play 71 games across all competitions for Pirates, finding the back of the net on eight occasions and weighing in six assists in the process.

Mntambo’s official Letter to Pirates

To: The club chairman, club officials, office staff, support staff, teammates (now former)

I would like to take this moment to greet you all.

With a heavy heart, it saddens me that I have to part ways with the club that I grew up supporting, a club that is not only dear to my heart but to my family as well.

As I look back, I can only reflect on the wonderful memories made and I will forever cherish them. The family environment at the club and the friendships and brotherhood created between myself and my then teammates mean a lot to me, and I hope this does not get thrown away because of my departure.

As I head to Sekhukhune United, I will carry with me the teachings of humility, oneness, team spirit and everything that I learned while at the club as I continue to shape myself to be the best athlete on and off the field.

I am happy to have received your blessings as we part ways. I trust that those remaining at the club will carry the club’s badge with pride and joy as I will also do so at my new home.

Thank you for the support and for the wonderful memories. This is not goodbye as we will meet not as teammates but as opponents.
