‘Targeted’ starlet Moremi overcomes early setbacks
The Star
|January 29, 2026
TSHEPANG Moremi doesn't let early shortcomings define his journey, as he believes that he can reach his final destination as long as he continues to believe in himself and work hard.
TSHEPANG Moremi of Orlando Pirates became a victim of the “boo boys” due to a shaky start in Orlando.
(Independent Media)
Blessed with good technique, pacey legs and an eye for goal, Moremi arrived at Orlando Pirates full of fire in his belly, thinking he would introduce himself to the Ghost in style, especially after a relatively lukewarm reception to his arrival, having been part of nine new signings unveiled by the club.
However, instead of being an instant fit at the club, Moremi became a victim of the “boo boys” due to a shaky start, which made some of the Ghost lose hope in him ever looking the part in the famous black-and-white colours of the Bucs.
But thanks to the support of his teammates - particularly childhood friend and homeboy Relebohile Mofokeng and Patrick Maswanganyi, and coach Abdeslam Ouaddou - Moremi gradually found his feet at the club.
He admits that being targeted for his sloppiness and slow start cut deep, but the onus was still on him to get out of the dark hole.
