Foshan Nanshi Overview

The Betway Premiership title race may still be up for grabs, but the Tshwane giants are increasingly operating beyond the usual domestic rivalry. Despite surrendering their league crown last season, the Brazilians' achievements beyond the Premier Soccer League have strengthened their standing, with former star Anthony Laffor arguing that the club is now chasing ambitions far bigger than simply dominating South African football.

Former Amakhosi tactician Cavin Johnson has thrown his weight behind Masandawana to continue their historic ascent on the world stage. Following their recent success in the FIFA African-Asian-Pacific Cup, the Brazilians are now eyeing a potential blockbuster final against European giants Paris Saint-Germain if they beat the Derby of the Americas winners.

The Brazilians are reportedly working to finalise a late move for AmaZulu starlet Wandile Dube as the transfer window reaches its climax. The Brazilians appear to have successfully jumped to the front of the queue for the highly-rated 22-year-old defender.

The Buccaneers' mentor has sensationally hit back at the club’s former stars and legends following intense criticism of his tactical approach. The Moroccan tactician has found himself at the centre of a heated debate after taking a hardline stance against showboating, even suggesting he would walk away if players continued to prioritise entertainment over efficiency.
