The duo made the move from Gauteng to the Cape Winelands outfit during the January transfer window in pursuit of regular minutes, and have since settled into Gavin Hunt’s setup. Tiwane, in particular, has established himself as a key figure at the heart of the defence. Addressing their long-term prospects, CEO Rob Benadie has since commented on the club’s interest.

The versatile midfielder has been doing well for the Glamour Boys since getting promoted to the senior team a couple of seasons ago. However, in the ongoing campaign, he has been under sharp criticism for failing to deliver as expected, especially in the final third. 'Mdu' has been guilty of missing some big chances, and Amakhosi end up paying the price.

The centre-back has been having mixed reactions from football lovers in South Africa. The fans are divided about the quality of the 30-year-old, who has been a regular feature for the Soweto giants, especially after the exit of Mbekezeli Mbokazi to the Major League Soccer outfit Chicago Fire early in December.

The former Bucs captain has sounded a clear call to arms to Sibisi, challenging the centre-back to elevate his leadership as expectations intensify. The Buccaneers now find themselves in a tightening title race, with pressure mounting to reassert control at the top after a costly stalemate against Siwelele FC handed the momentum to Mamelodi Sundowns.
