Rimini Overview

The Buccaneers icon Tlou Segolela has shed light on the defining factors that powered the coach to a sensational treble in his maiden season at Mayfair. The Moroccan tactician managed to silence the doubters by restoring the club to the pinnacle of South African football, ending nearly a decade of dominance by rivals Mamelodi Sundowns.

The Brazilians chief has opened up on the emotional journey that led his team back to the summit of African football. After a decade of waiting, the Chloorkop outfit finally secured their second continental star, prioritising a historic trophy over domestic dominance.

The former football manager has warned that the Buccaneers could face a massive setback if their boss decides to walk away from the club. Despite leading the Sea Rubbers to a historic domestic treble, the Moroccan tactician has cast doubt over his future with the Soweto giants.

In a statement released on the Buccaneers website, the 78-year-old chairman took issue with the PSL title win being described as “after a 14-year drought" and, quite rightly, pointed out the many cups and achievements acquired by the club over the years.
