Orlando Pirates FC recently parted ways with winger Gilberto, who has now joined Wiliete Sport Clube de Benguela in Angola. This transfer comes just two weeks after the club announced his release, marking a fresh start for the player after a challenging time in the Premier Soccer League. Gilberto struggled to make an impact during his tenure at Orlando Pirates FC, where he made only 10 appearances without scoring or assisting. His inability to secure a consistent spot in the starting lineup ultimately led to his exit from the club. The Pirates released him on June 2, despite having one year left on his contract.

At Wiliete SCB, Gilberto is set to join a club that has been making significant strides in Angolan football. Founded in 2018, Wiliete SCB has quickly become a title contender, finishing second in the Girabola and earning a spot in the upcoming CAF Champions League. This opportunity will allow Gilberto to showcase his skills and regain his status as a top winger in the region. The club expressed excitement about his signing, highlighting their ambition and the winning culture they aim to foster.

Gilberto's move to Wiliete SCB follows a successful campaign for the club, which recently lifted the Angolan Cup. This victory demonstrates their capability to compete for major trophies, and they hope that Gilberto can contribute to their continental ambitions. After a frustrating period at Orlando Pirates FC, the winger is eager to prove his worth and make a significant impact in his new environment.
