Premier Soccer League Kaizer Chiefs
More interest in Chiefs star after he rejects PSL club
The Soweto giants are set to lose one of their players this January amid local interest and a bid for the star. That situation may force Amakhosi into the transfer market to find a suitable replacement. However, any move will be closely scrutinised as questions linger over whether the club can avoid another costly transfer blunder.

Premier Soccer League Orlando Pirates vs Mamelodi Sundowns FC
‘Mudau is part of Saleng deal! Leaving Sundowns for Pirates will be a downgrade, Chiefs are watching’
The 30-year-old pushed for a move away from Chloorkop during the last PSL transfer window amid rumours that he was a wanted man in Europe. He could now secure a transfer, but he is being linked with Masandawana's local rivals, the Buccaneers. If that happens, it would mark the end of the right-back's time with the Brazilians, where he has been since October 2020.

Premier Soccer League Mamelodi Sundowns FC
BIG MISTAKE! Sundowns warned against appointing Mosimane - 'It won't work'
With the possible reunion between the experienced tactician and the dominant Premier Soccer League outfit driving the rumour mill, a possible conflict between the two parties has been identified. Mosimane is clubless, and Sundowns have struggled to impose themselves under Miguel Cardoso; many believe a reunion will be the best move for both parties.

Pirates whitewash AmaZulu to widen gap over Sundowns and Chiefs
The Sea Robbers were very dominant against Usuthu and registered a big win that will perhaps add impetus to their title-chasing campaign. Determined to wrestle back the title from their Soweto rivals, the Bucs not only won but also registered a clean sheet. Masandawana could, however, reduce the gap should they win their next game against Sekhukhune United on Sunday.

Agent Makaab speaks on why Sundowns star will have loan stint in Portugal cut short
The 26-year-old has become another Mamelodi Sundowns player to have his loan spell cut short, either because of limited game time or the parent club’s desire to have him back. This follows the release of fellow loanee Matías Esquivel by Greek side AE Kifisia after his stint abroad failed to gain momentum. Closer to home, Khulumani Ndamane is also reported to be on his way out of TS Galaxy, having been loaned out shortly after signing for Masandawana.

Ex-Chiefs coach Ertugral leaps to the defence of Broos amid Mahlangu's lunge into ex-Pirates star Vilakazi
South Africa exited the 2025 AFCON without managing to at least match their third-place finish from the previous edition in Ivory Coast. The 1996 African champions were less convincing this time around and looked a far cry from the side that charmed the continent in their last outing. Their early departure has sparked differing opinions about their Belgian coach and the team’s overall direction ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
