    WHAT HAPPENED?

    Marumo Gallants have officially announced that former Kaizer Chiefs coach Molefi Ntseki has joined the club as Technical Director to assist coach Dan Malesela.

    The struggling Bloemfontein-based team sits in the relegation zone with just four points from six PSL games.

    They are two points behind AmaZulu and TS Galaxy, making their league survival a daunting challenge.

    Despite their league struggles, Gallants had a strong run in the Carling Knockout Cup, reaching the semi-finals before losing at home.

    Ntseki's appointment is seen as a strategic move to bolster their chances of climbing out of the bottom.

    The club is relying on his experience and football knowledge to turn their fortunes around.

    This addition will inspire the players and the technical team alike. With key matches ahead, Ntseki’s influence will be put to the test.

    Gallants are in desperate need of results to stay afloat in the league.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Sitting on the wrong side of the league table, Gallants are banking on Ntseki’s expertise to help them escape relegation.

    His role as Technical Director will be crucial in creating synergy between management and the technical team.

    The club hopes his strategic input will lead to improved performances on the pitch.

    WHAT NEXT FOR MARUMO?

    Gallants’ next challenge is against SuperSport United on Friday, a tough test for the relegation-threatened side.

    Both teams are desperate for three points, with Gavin Hunt’s SuperSport likely to come out firing.

    Ntseki’s influence will be critical as Gallants aim to prepare effectively for this clash.

    A positive result could boost their morale and provide momentum for the season ahead.
