The co-coaches have been under the spotlight, especially when the Glamour Boys were eliminated from the CAF Confederation Cup and the Nedbank Cup. Although the Soweto giants are currently in good form, the duo's future remains a matter of speculation. But should they be kept as the coaches going into the next season, or should a new man be appointed?

The South Africa international has been vital for the Glamour Boys since the late 2024/25 season when the then-coach Nasreddine Nabi gave him a second chance. The 31-year-old hopes to make the Bafana Bafana squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup to be co-hosted by the United States, Mexico, and Canada from June 11.

The on-loan Glamour Boys striker has been struggling for game time owing to injuries and stiff competition. However, he managed to get his second goal for the Soweto giants in the South African mid-week assignment staged at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane.

The Glamour Boys skipper missed a couple of matches owing to an injury but has now made a return to the Soweto giants, who are determined to get an automatic CAF Confederation Cup spot. The 31-year-old is also hoping to convince Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos to consider him for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
