The 61-year-old parted ways with the Premier Soccer League newbies, Durban City, a couple of weeks ago after falling out with the management. He has now been given another massive assignment with the Western Cape Province-outfit who have not had a good start to the ongoing 2025/26 campaign. They are currently struggling for consistency.

Following the surprising departure of Steve Barker from the Cape Winelands outfit to join Simba SC in Tanzania, Stellies were faced with the crucial task of making the perfect appointment—someone who aligns with the club’s culture and has the ability to deliver on its mandate.

In a bid to stabilise the boat rocked by inconsistency in their ongoing Premier Soccer League season, the club have made a wide range of changes. The club have brought on board key figures that are experienced in top-flight football, hoping their arrival will give them the positive results they are yearning for. The newly appointed figures have enough time to strategise and come up with a working plan before the season resumes after the AFCON break.

There have been changes in several Premier Soccer League matches, especially on coaching department, where those who are seemingly not delivering have been replaced by tacticians who might be having what is needed. With the league set to resume in mid-January after the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) break, some teams will have new faces on the touchline.

The former Moroka Swallows coach has thrown his hat into the ring, insisting he is best suited to lead the Soweto giants and could be the solution to their problems. His comments come at a time when Amakhosi are being led by co-coaches Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef, who stepped in following the departure of Nasreddine Nabi. The current situation could pave the way for the Glamour Boys to appoint a substantive head coach at the end of the season.
