Talented young Hope winger Edmilson Chaney joins Orlando Pirates

Talented young Hope winger Edmilson Chaney joins Orlando Pirates

The 19-year-old starred for the Motsepe Foundation Championship side last season as they secured promotion from the Western Cape ABC Motsepe League.

A former Cape Town Spurs youth product, Chaney was reportedly being chased by a number of top-flight clubs but had an easy decision to make when the Buccaneers came calling.

A Hope statement read: "Edmilson 'Millies' Chaney departs Hope FC after completing a transfer to Orlando Pirates.

"A young man who played an important role in our promotion and whose journey represents exactly what we want Hope FC to stand for — creating opportunities and pathways for young talent to reach the highest level.

"To Millies and his family, we wish you nothing but success on this next chapter."
