Orlando Pirates | Tshegofatso Mabasa Faces Stiff Competition For PSL Golden Boot

Tshegofatso Mabasa: The previous season’s Golden Boot winner, Mabasa, scored 16 goals last year and will aim to maintain his impressive performance. With a new contract from Pirates, he's a top contender for the award, leading an attack that includes Patrick Maswanganyi, Gilberto, and potentially Relebohile Mofokeng if he stays in South Africa.

Ladies and gentlemen the #betwaypremiership golden Boot winner.

Iqraam Rayners: Last season’s runner-up, Rayners played a pivotal role in Stellenbosch’s third-place finish and matched a league record by netting five goals in a single match. Given his recent goal-scoring prowess, he is a key player to watch as Stellies might contend for the PSL title.

Peter Shalulile: The Namibian striker rediscovered his form towards the end of the previous season, contributing to Mamelodi Sundowns’ record points tally. Shalulile not only seeks the Golden Boot but is also just seven goals away from breaking the all-time PSL record of 123 goals.

Arthur Sales: The Brazilian forward has joined Mamelodi Sundowns, sparking excitement among fans who believe he will add significant quality to the PSL. Sales’ arrival is seen as a strong move by the defending champions, who are determined to retain their title and justify their decision to part ways with coach Rhulani Mokwena.

Lehlogonolo Mojela: The promising former TS Galaxy striker opted for Stellenbosch FC over Mamelodi Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs, believing it aligns better with his playing style. If he emerges as the PSL’s top scorer, it will validate his choice, and with Iqraam Rayners as a potential partner, Mojela could excel in the Winelands.

PSL Record Watch: As highlighted by Briefly News, Peter Shalulile is just seven goals shy of becoming the PSL’s all-time leading scorer. He’s not alone in the chase; SuperSport United’s Bradley Grobler is also seven goals away from breaking the record.
