Check out the latest transfer news and rumours from Amakhosi, Buccaneers, Masandawana and the rest of the PSL teams. The 2025/26 winter transfer window came and went with all the PSL clubs reinforcing their squads. However, with the summer transfer window fast approaching, technical benches will be re-examining their squads and looking for the perfect player to plug a gap or drive them onto meeting their season ambitions.

The 27-year-old former Masandawana versatile and creative attacker is finally getting it right in Europe, a couple of months after his controversial exit from the reigning champions of the South African top-flight football. The South American is proving to be a talent and might soon play in the Spanish top tier.

The 73-year-old Belgian rubbed a majority of the fans in South Africa the wrong way, and despite the South African Federation Association, SAFA, clarifying the matter, the former Cameroon coach has apologised. He insists his sentiments were blown out of proportion, and what he meant is different from what was perceived.

The Sea Robbers have been performing well defensively, thanks to the talented players who have been outstanding in the last couple of seasons, including the current campaign. The Nigeria international and his colleague from South Africa have been on the sidelines nursing injuries for an extended period, but they are now ready to deliver for the Soweto giants.

The former South Africa international made his name with the Glamour Boys, serving them as a player and a senior member of the technical team. He also coached Amakhosi via several stints before unforeseen circumstances led to his unceremonious exit to Usuthu where he is currently serving at the helm of the first-team.

The Sea Robbers have been doing well in South African domestic football this season where they have already won the MTN8 and the Carling Knockout. The Buccaneers are now tipped to go all the way and win the Premier Soccer League owing to their form, quality, and depth. Bucs are also hoping to make an impact in the Nedbank Cup.

The reigning Premier Soccer League champions are in Botswana, where they took part in a tournament, as most of their players were not involved in the forthcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), starting December 21 to January 18 in Morocco. Masandawana showed their class, reaping their opponents apart as the technical team continues working on their tactics.

The World Football Governing Body gave clubs powers to retain players until just six days before the biennial competition kicks off in North Africa. Many teams have been negatively affected, including South Africa, who have been forced to leave behind some key players scheduled to join them in Morocco later.

The Warriors are among the 24 nations on the continent that will be in action in the next couple of days, hoping to make a statement in North Africa. However, they will have to do without former Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns winger, alongside a Premier Soccer League midfielder who insists he was ready to represent his country.

The 28-year-old former Kaizer Chiefs defender played a crucial role in helping the Red and Blues claim maximum points in a seven-goal thriller staged at the National Arena in Bucharest. The Romanian heavyweights started the campaign on a low note but are seemingly getting it right in the crucial stage of Europe's second-tier competition.

Both the former Orlando Pirates defender and the South Africa tactician have been trending since Wednesday, just 10 days before the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) that is set to begin in Morocco from December 21 to January 18. The new Chicago Fire defender was on the receiving end for failing to meet his end of the bargain in the national team's preparations.

In the last couple of months, 'Nyoso' has been trending after being overlooked by the South Africa technical bench despite his rich form in North Africa, where he is delivering for the Red Castle domestically and abroad. According to the 73-year-old Belgian coach, the former Buccaneers' attacker has nothing to bring in the team.

The Buccaneers were rewarded with their impressive domestic form as they produced nine players for Hugo Broos' South Africa, who will be in Morocco from December 21 to challenge for the continental glory. The 20-year-old defender who recently sealed a move to the Major League Soccer outfit Chicago Fire is convinced Bucs players will play a starring role for the national team at the tournament.

The South African senior national team under coach Hugo is preparing for the biennial competition that is scheduled to start from December 21 to January 18 in Morocco. Having finished third in the 2023 edition, football lovers in Mzansi hope their team can go all the way to win their second continental crown but will be concerned over the fitness of the 28-year-old defender.

The Premier Soccer League rewards the best individuals monthly, starting from the tactician who has delivered for his team, the player with the best starts in the respective month, as well as a second-to-none strike in the South African top-tier. The Sea Robbers have once again been recognised for what they have achieved.

A majority of countries on the continent are unhappy that the World Football Governing Body told clubs they can keep their players for up to a week before the prestigious nations' biennial competition that will be played in Morocco. A total of 24 teams, with South Africa among them, will be battling for the bragging rights.

The Sea Robbers have been excellent in local competitions since the 2025/26 season began, already netting two crowns. This weekend, they have a chance to win another one, although unofficial, when they come up against a team selected by the fans at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban. Amakhosi and Masandawana have each produced four players in the starting side as voted in.

The experienced former Mamelodi Sundowns tactician has been serving Abafana Bes'thende since his unceremonious exit from the defending Premier Soccer League champions. He has, however, been linked to some top teams, including the Glamour Boys, who are currently under caretaker coaches until the end of the season.
