Orlando Pirates register interest in Bulgaria-based attacker

Orlando Pirates have reportedly registered their interest in Bulgaria-based attacker Jaisen Clifford.

Clifford is currently on the books of Etar Veliko Tarnovo but his current contract is reportedly coming to an end on 30 June.

Now, according to Sportswire, Pirates have even written a letter to Clifford inviting him for assessment ahead of next season.

Should everything go according to plan, Clifford could join the Buccaneers for their pre-season in Spain in the coming weeks.

Clifford, 29, is seen as a cover should either Relebohile Mofokeng or Monnapule Saleng leave Pirates in July.

The former Cape Town All Stars winger can play both on the right and left of the field, and he can also play as a centre-forward.

The Mpumalanga-born star scored seven goals and registered a single assist in 33 competitive matches this past season.
