As Orlando Pirates gear up for the upcoming season, it seems that midfielder Miguel Timm is on his way out of the club. The 33-year-old has found himself on the fringes of the team this season, with limited playing time compared to previous years.
Last season, Timm was a regular presence on the field, making 22 appearances in the Betway Premiership. However, this season has been a different story, with the midfielder failing to secure a spot in the starting lineup. In fact, he has yet to make a single league appearance and was only named as an unused substitute in a match against Stellenbosch FC.
While Timm has seen some action in cup competitions, his opportunities have been few and far between. He featured in a MTN8 Cup game against Cape Town City and made two appearances in the CAF Champions League.
With his contract set to expire at the end of the season, it appears that Timm is no longer part of Pirates’ plans for the future. The club is unlikely to offer him a contract extension, leaving him free to explore other opportunities once the season concludes.
Despite being a key player in the midfield in the past, it seems that Timm will be seeking a new club to continue his career. Meanwhile, Orlando Pirates have already begun strengthening their squad for the upcoming season, with the signing of Sinoxolo Kwayiba from Chippa United.
It will be interesting to see where Miguel Timm ends up next and how Orlando Pirates will fare in the new season without him in the squad.
