Cup Overview

The veteran playmaker has been advised to call time on his international career following a disappointing end to his 2026 World Cup journey after he saw his tournament cut short by a red card and a subsequent three-match FIFA ban. The global tournament came shortly after his CAF Champions League winning club had announced a one year contract extension for the 36-year-old.

Amakhosi have officially unveiled their home and away kits for the upcoming season, continuing their high-profile partnership with Italian sportswear brand Kappa. The new designs, launched under the evocative "The Kingdom Rises" mantra, look to blend the club's rich historical legacy with modern lifestyle aesthetics.

With a Premier Soccer League title defence and a top tier continental campaign to fight, the Buccaneers have started re-shaping their squad to prepare for the upcoming season. The latest announcement follows the already reported exits of Relebohile Mofokeng, Bandile Shandu, Sipho Mbule, Tshegofatso Mabasa, Karim Kimvuidi and Gilberto, meaning an astonishing 13 players from their treble-winning squad have left before the new season begins.

With multiple media outlets reporting the youngster is finalising a deal to move to Belgium champions Royale Union Saint-Gilloise, Blues legend Salomon Kalou has thrown his weight behind the 21-year-old, insisting the youngster has the quality and technical ability to thrive in any European league.
