Sekhukhune United FC head coach Cedric Kaze believes the club needs a few more signings to have a successful season. With two wins and a defeat in the league, and having advanced past AmaZulu in the MTN8 to book a semi-final spot against Orlando Pirates, Kaze understands the expectations from him as Eric Tinkler's official successor.
What are the expectations?
The club has consistently finished in the top five for the last couple of years, and Kaze wants to do everything possible to get into the next stage of the MTN8.
What comes next?
Sekhukhune United FC will face Orlando Pirates three times in the next week, and Kaze feels the depth is not where it needs to be from the bench to compete on all fronts.
Why it matters for Sekhukhune United FC
With 17 official exits, including the retirement of captain Linda Mntambo, and losing experienced campaigners like Thabang Monare, Bradley Grobler, and Shaune Mogaila, the club signed 14 players, but Kaze feels they need to strengthen positions and every line, defence, midfield, attacking, to get quality and depth. As of 24 Aug 2026, Sekhukhune United FC stands 5th in the Betway Premiership with 6 points, having scored 3 goals and conceded 2, and are 1 point behind leaders Orlando Pirates.
