Orlando Pirates, the next opponent for TS Galaxy FC, have made an urgent High Court application to secure four bank accounts connected to financial dealings involving their ex-finance manager, Darryl Joselowsky. The application was submitted by Orlando Pirates Football Club along with its retail and property entities, listing Joselowsky and Standard Bank.
The club described this as a protective step to secure its money during an ongoing inquiry, clarifying it does not imply any guilt. Orlando Pirates mentioned Joselowsky is assisting with the process and the club is dedicated to a just resolution for all parties.
Club stresses precautionary nature
Orlando Pirates released statements to explain the legal step. The club affirmed its primary focus is on the team and the ongoing season, reassuring fans, partners, and sponsors that daily business and football activities are unaffected. With the case now in court, the club said it would be unsuitable to give more details currently but will share information when possible.
Operations and focus remain unaffected
Even with the court action, the reigning Betway Premiership champions stated that all administrative and football functions are operating as usual. The team's current priority is the MTN8 final. The complete schedule of future games is available on the fixtures page.
For TS Galaxy, currently 12th in the Premier Soccer League with six points from seven games, the off-field news at Orlando Pirates adds a layer of context ahead of their key away fixture. Galaxy's recent form reads one win, two draws and two defeats from their last five outings, a run they will aim to improve upon when they visit the second-placed Buccaneers. Orlando Pirates, who are second in the standings, have conceded only 6 goals in their 7 league matches so far this season. Their next opponent, TS Galaxy, will be looking to their own squad, to find a way through that tight defence.
