Premier Soccer League Overview

Former Amakhosi star and outspoken pundit Junior Khanye has sent a clear message to Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos regarding his defensive selections. Following a commanding continental performance, Khanye believes two Mamelodi Sundowns stars have proved they are indispensable for the upcoming FIFA World Cup.

The 31-year-old playmaker has quickly become a key figure in the Soweto giants’ midfield since joining the side led by co-coaches Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef earlier this season. The ex-Mamelodi Sundowns star has been in fine form at Naturena, earning widespread praise from both the Amakhosi faithful and the technical team for how seamlessly he has settled into life at the club.

The Soweto giants appear to have finally cracked the right formula after a turbulent spell that even saw supporters protest at Naturena, demanding an end to the poor results. The turnaround has been evident in their recent performances, with a renewed sense of structure and confidence on the pitch. Their coach has pointed to what has led to the improved performances.

The Amakhosi midfielder has emerged as one of the club’s standout performers this season, consistently driving the team forward with his influence in the middle of the park. However, a former Soweto giants star believes his impact could be elevated even further with the right support alongside him. He has pinpointed a specific player he feels would perfectly complement the midfielder’s qualities.
