Swallows have loaned out the duo of Mthokozisi Shwabule and Siphelele Ndlovu to GladAfrica Championship club Cape Town All Stars.
The two will spend the rest of the season with All Stars in the first division after battling for game time with Swallows.
Shwabule, who plays as a left-back, has managed just two appearances this season with Sifiso Hlanti, Thabo Matlaba and Keegan Ritchie all ahead of him in the pecking order.
Ndlovu has also battled to break into the Dube Birds first team setup this season.
Meanwhile, Benin international goalkeeper Marcel Souke Dandjinou has signed for JDR Stars following a successful assessment with the promotion-chasing first division club.
Swallows Football Club is not only currently one of three unbeaten sides left in the DStv Premiership, but, remarkably, they also sit second in the standings.
The Dube Birds, back in the premiership for the first time since they were relegated half-a-decade ago, have flown at dizzying heights despite their injured wings having only recently healed.
Brandon Truter’s side has hitched a ride on the momentum which saw them usurp 2019/2020 GladAfrica champions-elect, Ajax Cape Town (now known as Cape Town Spurs after Ajax Amsterdam severed their 20-year partnership) at the final hurdle.
The coach says their current form is not a coincidence.
