The 23-year-old, together with Happy Mashiane, were sent to spend the rest of the season with Lehlohonolo Seema' side after struggling for playing opportunities at Amakhosi. It is the first time in his professional career to play for another Premier Soccer League team, having known only the Soweto giants as his home.

Amakhosi's difficult run of form continued as they are now winless in three successive games after being restricted to a draw at home by a team that is outside the top eight. This comes as fears mount among the Soweto giants' fans that their team could return to being that strugglling side they have witnessed in recent seasons.

The Buccaners were one of the most active teams in the transfer market, bringing in players who made an immediate impact at the club. That has left their coach more than satisfied with the business they conducted. But the Soweto giants are now under intense scrutiny to see if the men they signed will help the club break Mamelodi Sundowns' dominance of the PSL.

Local coaches continue to get big jobs in foreign lands, providing the country with a deep pool of experienced trainers, something that could benefit Bafana Bafana in future. Morocco has now become a place where South African tacticians are trusted.

After losing back-to-back matches, Amakhosi are under pressure and desperate for a victory. Some changes at the back are expected as Amakhosi hope to get a win in the midweek South African top-flight clash at the FNB Stadium.

South Africa are three points on top of Group C ahead of second-placed Benin and Nigeria who have six points fewer than them. That makes winning their remaining two matches crucial in the bid to qualify for the World Cup, especially with the Teboho Mokoena case being a potential major drawback.

The Soweto giants are facing a coaching situation which could disrupt all the work invested in pre-season as well as earlier stages of this season. This comes after Amakhosi started the 2025/26 term impressively but that could go down the drain for another difficult season. But the club's goalkeeper is not worried about what is happening in their camp.

The two players have been sent out to explore playing opportunities away from Naturena, hoping to improve themselves by the time they return to Amakhosi at the end of the season. Having come through Amakhosi development ranks, the duo will experience professional football in a different set-up hoping to cope with what they face away from the only club they have played for in their careers.

Premier Soccer League action continues as the title race is slowly taking shape with teams separating each other. Log leaders Babina Noko remain unbeaten in this campaign after securing maximum points on Saturday at home against visiting Abafana Bes'thende. At the other end of the table, some teams are already in the battle to stay safe.

The Premier Soccer League strugglers have rang major changes just seven games into the new season. They are now running against time to sign "five to six players" ahead of Monday's PSL transfer deadline to strengthen their squad while also replacing those about to be shown the exit door.

The Masandawana tactician has come in to hype one of his players he believes is not receiving the credit he deserves. The coach feels his player, who is a midfielder, is not appreciated the way he should and spells out the qualities he sees in him as the quality of Sundowns' squad is under scrutiny following little activity in the transfer market.

The 27-year-old appeared on course to destroy his career but the Buccaneers took him in when other teams appeared not wanting anything to do with the midfielder. But he has picked himself up and has been making headlines for the right reasons as he seems to be enjoying a new lease of life at the Soweto giants.

Follolwing a promising start to the season and a picture harmonious camp, things have unexpectedly changed for Amakhosi. With their coach on his way out of the club, that has coincided with a dip in form amid fears of a demoralised dressing room. That leaves the Soweto giants with a task to rise from the goings-on at Naturena.

The Soweto giants travelled to Luanda to face Kabuscorp, and they lost 1-0 in the first leg of their CAF Confederation Cup first-round tie at the 11th of November Stadium on Saturday. It was a second successive defeat for the Glamour Boys in four days, and to make it worse, they arrived in Angola without a head coach. They also could not score in two straight games.

The Buccaneers cruised to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Lioli FC in a CAF Champions League first preliminary round, first leg match at Free State Stadium on Saturday. It was a big win for the Soweto giants, who now host the Lesotho Champions, enjoying three away goals. The result also saw the PSL heavyweights sealing a 3-0 win on the trot in all competitions.

The 37-year-old is showing no signs of having tired legs but appears to be maturing with age as he chanses records in the Premier Soccer League. Experience seems to be at work for the Sekhukhune United man who has not played for the national team under coach Hugo Broos.
