The Betway Premiership title race may still be up for grabs, but the Tshwane giants are increasingly operating beyond the usual domestic rivalry. Despite surrendering their league crown last season, the Brazilians' achievements beyond the Premier Soccer League have strengthened their standing, with former star Anthony Laffor arguing that the club is now chasing ambitions far bigger than simply dominating South African football.

The Brazilians are reportedly working to finalise a late move for AmaZulu starlet Wandile Dube as the transfer window reaches its climax. The Brazilians appear to have successfully jumped to the front of the queue for the highly-rated 22-year-old defender.

Usuthu's head coach has issued a challenge to his squad, insisting that the goalscoring burden must be shared across the team rather than resting solely on their Zimbabwean striker. Despite the forward's scintillating form in the Betway Premiership, the Usuthu boss is eager to ensure his side does not become a one-man show.

The Soweto giants' mentor has voiced his disappointment following a stalemate against Abafana Bes'thende, pointing to a lack of clinical edge in his attacking ranks after also failing to convert a penalty. Amakhosi were unable to find a breakthrough despite creating opportunities, with the coach confirming after the match that an injury had led to the influential midfielder being substituted.
