Preston Lions Áttekintés

The Glamour Boys are entering a brave new era under the guidance of Fernando da Cruz, and the message from the bench is loud and clear: silverware is the immediate priority. Assistant coach Dillon Sheppard believes the season-opening MTN8 represents the perfect springboard for the Soweto giants to reclaim their status as the kings of South African football.

With multiple media outlets reporting the youngster is finalising a deal to move to Belgium champions Royale Union Saint-Gilloise, Blues legend Salomon Kalou has thrown his weight behind the 21-year-old, insisting the youngster has the quality and technical ability to thrive in any European league.

Former Amakhosi player Junior Khanye has sensationally claimed that the talented midfielder could still end up in the Black and Gold despite his recent move abroad. The 28-year-old recently departed Orlando Pirates to join Iraqi side Zakho FC on a free transfer.

Shortly after news broke that the renowned coach was one of 80 applicants received by the South African Football Association (SAFA) for the soon-to-be vacant head coach role, he aired his views on South Africa's exit from the tournament on Smash Sports and broke down, in hindsight, what he would have done differently.
