The Brazilians legend Harris "TV-4" Choeu has thrown his weight behind his former club to secure glory in the upcoming MTN8 final against high-flying Buccaneers. The former assistant coach believes Chloorkop’s finest have the edge, though he admitted that stopping the Soweto giants' recent momentum will be a significant challenge.
Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Miguel Cardoso has intensified his calls for the implementation of Video Assistant Referee technology in South African football. Following a controversial officiating decision during his side's MTN8 semi-final victory, the Portuguese tactician claimed he now has a powerful ally in his quest for technical reform.
The 28-year-old Nigeria international had been linked with a move to Chloorkop but has instead penned a reported one year deal with Libyan side Al Shomooa SC on a free transfer after severing ties with Stellenbosch FC at the end of last season.
The Motsepe Foundation Championship side Hope FC have confirmed that Edmilson “Millies” Chaney has joined the Soweto club in a farewell message posted to their Facebook page.
The Tshwane giants are navigating a gruelling fixture schedule, juggling their league commitments with the MTN8 final and a glamour FIFA Intercontinental Cup encounter. While the Portuguese mentor has voiced his frustration and called for better planning to accommodate the congested schedule, he has now accepted that the fixture list is unlikely to change, leaving the Brazilians to find a way to manage the demands and keep competing on all fronts.
The Brazilians tactician has expressed his disbelief regarding the lack of individual recognition for the Chilean star. Despite the 27-year-old’s sustained excellence in the heart of the Tshwane giants’ midfield, the Portuguese manager believes the playmaker has been unfairly overlooked for the league's top honours.
