The Buccaneers forward has revealed that standing for the Soweto giants on the global stage is his ultimate ambition, as he aspires to secure a place with the All Whites for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The 29-year-old, who joined the club in January, is hoping to carry his club domestic form into the international arena as his national team prepares for a challenging group stage in North America.

The Brazilians are known for snapping up the best talent in South Africa, but they will be kicking themselves after details emerged of how they let a future superstar slip through their fingers. The Ghost's midfield sensation is now the talk of the PSL, yet his career could have taken a very different path at Chloorkop.

The writing appears to be on the wall for one of the Buccaneers' stars as his representative has officially broken the silence on his future. After falling down the pecking order under the current coaching regime, the 31-year-old is now preparing for a life away from the Soweto giants.

The 27-year-old's extraordinary season in Denmark reached new heights this week as the wing-back produced another standout performance in a high-stakes title clash but, despite his domestic dominance, the former Cape Town City man remains on the outside of the South Africa national team.

The race for the 2025/26 Premier Soccer League individual honours is reaching boiling point as a new name enters the conversation to challenge the established frontrunners. While the spotlight has largely remained on teenage sensation Relebohile Mofokeng, Richards Bay head coach Ronnie Gabriel has thrown a domestic spanner in the works by touting one of his own rising stars for a major accolade.

Abdeslam Ouaddou will need his squad to be strengthened further during the off-season transfer window if Bucs are to stand a chance to defend their titles and challenge for more. Already, the Soweto giants have been linked with a number of players, with reports strongly indicating they will possibly raid their Premier Soccer League opponents for players.

Check out the latest transfer news and rumours from Amakhosi, Buccaneers, Masandawana, the rest of the PSL teams and South African players and coaches plying their trade abroad.

The 28-year-old has enjoyed a fairly solid season despite not being a regular starter for his club. His contributions have still been notable whenever called upon, but not consistently starting matches has cost him his place in the Bafana Bafana squad.

The Buccaneers star, who ensured the Sea Robbers salvaged a point in the Soweto Derby, did not attempt to hide his frustration after Sunday’s stalemate. The result dealt a painful blow to the log leaders’ title ambitions, as they missed the chance to pull clear at the summit, with the defending champions, still holding a game in hand, now breathing down their necks, just a single point behind.

Amakhosi came close to avenging their February defeat against the Buccaneers. Just when it seemed they would get their revenge, the Sea Robbers struck with 15 minutes remaining to pull level. In the end, the contest finished all square, with the points shared between the arch-rivals.
