Wingate & Finchley Overview

Fresh from making the move to Young Africans from the Premier Soccer League, the 55-year-old has raised concerns over the growing trend of Mzansi coaches seeking opportunities abroad. While the switch to the Tanzanian giants marks an exciting new chapter in his career, he believes the local league risks losing valuable local expertise if more of the country's top tacticians continue to leave.

The Buccaneers head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou has expressed huge confidence in his side's preparations as they look to retain their Betway Premiership title. The Soweto giants are currently intensifying their training regime in Spain, with the former Morocco international pleased with the tactical and fitness evolution of his squad.

Augusto Palacios has sent a clear message to the rest of the Betway Premiership, insisting that the Buccaneers youth development model is the blueprint for future success. The veteran coach believes that the Sea Robbers' ability to transition talent from the DStv Diski Challenge to the first team and onto the global stage is a standard every South African club should strive to emulate.

The Soweto giants are entering a pivotal era under new head coach Fernando da Cruz, but a club legend has warned that the current squad is still missing the essential ingredients for success. With Amakhosi desperate to return to their glory days, the pressure is mounting at Naturena to secure the right talent before the window slams shut.
