Sioni Bolnisi Overview

The former Soweto giants co-coach has pulled back the curtain on the recruitment strategy required to return the Glamour Boys to their former glory. Despite leading the club to a third-place finish and continental qualification last season, the Tunisian tactician saw his contract run out, but he has left behind a clear warning for the Amakhosi hierarchy.

The former Amakhosi co-coach has pulled no punches in a scathing assessment of the club's current standing in South African football. Following his recent departure from Naturena, the Tunisian tactician warned that the Soweto giants are currently nowhere near the level required to challenge the country's elite.

Following reports that Abafana Bes’thende mentor could be set for a surprise return to Gauteng, Monday morning brought fresh developments as news filtered through that the former Masandawana tactician has reportedly parted ways with the KwaZulu-Natal-based outfit, as anticipated amid mounting speculation.

The Brazilians chairman has sent a defiant message to the rest of the Betway Premiership after seeing his side’s domestic dominance come to an end. Despite a historic CAF Champions League triumph, the Masandawana chief admitted the pain of losing the league title to Orlando Pirates while vowing a ferocious response in the 2026/27 campaign.
