The battle for a lethal goal-scorer is heating up in South Africa’s top-flight football, with Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates set to lock horns over the signature of Djibril Ouattara. The Burkina Faso international has been on fire for APR FC in Rwanda, netting an impressive 12 goals in just 10 matches. With his sharp finishing and eye for goal, he’s now attracting attention from South Africa’s biggest clubs.
Chiefs and Pirates eye prolific striker Ouattara
According to Soccer Laduma, both Chiefs and Pirates have been presented with the opportunity to land Ouattara this winter. At 25, the striker boasts experience beyond African football, having previously played for Dutch club Vitesse Arnhem. His international credentials are solid too, with two goals from 14 appearances for Burkina Faso.
An insider confirmed his availability, saying, “Djibril Ouattara is a quality striker with a proven record. He has also been offered to clubs in South Africa.”
With his blistering form—10 games, 12 goals, and 3 assists since January—it’s no surprise that South African heavyweights are beginning to take notice. Both Chiefs and Pirates have struggled to find a consistent goal-scorer, making Ouattara’s arrival a potential game-changer.
The race is officially on. Will it be the glamour of Chiefs or the might of Pirates that wins this transfer tussle? Stay tuned as South Africa’s football giants battle it out for one of Africa’s most exciting attacking talents.
