Aperçu Primeiro de Agosto

The Farook Kadodia-owned team is reportedly making moves to secure a high-profile appointment for their technical team ahead of the 2026/27 Premier Soccer League season. The KwaZulu-Natal outfit is understood to be advancing plans to bring in a former Amakhosi co-coach as their new head coach.

The highly-rated attacker has officially confirmed his departure from the Israeli outfit, sparking fresh questions regarding his long-term future with the Buccaneers. The Congolese playmaker spent the 2025/26 campaign away from Mayfair in a bid to revitalise his career following a frustrating period of limited game time in the South African top flight.

The Buccaneers assistant coach has warned the squad that their recent historic treble will count for nothing when the new season kicks off. Despite a dominant campaign under Abdeslam Ouaddou, the Sea Robbers have been told they must reset immediately to maintain their status as the team to beat in South Africa.

Following a controversial squad announcement by SAFA and Hugo Broos on Wednesday night, while the nation was glued to their screens, backlash quickly followed over how the six players who missed the final cut were treated. However, amid the outrage, there now appears to be a twist in the tale, with reports suggesting the omitted stars will still travel to the global showpiece.
