BUCS SET TO DEFEND MTN 8 TITLE

Orlando Pirates captain, Innocent Maela, has expressed the team’s determination to retain their MTN8 title that the Buccaneers won and defended in 2023.The 31-year old was speaking at the official launch of the 2024 MTN8, which was held at the SABC Studio 1 in Auckland Park on Wednesday, 31 July.

“We are looking forward to starting the season on a positive note,” said Maela.

“We are well aware of the challenge that lies ahead of us this weekend. SuperSport United are a very tough side. Matches against them are never easy and we cannot, and will not underestimate them.” The reigning champions will kick off their title defence at home against Matsatsantsa on Saturday, 03 August 2024.

This year’s MTN8 comes with a significant incentive. The winners will walk away with a grand prize of R10 million – a significant increase from the R8 million from last year.
