Sekhukhune United FC is poised to lose another key player as defender Tresor Tshibwabwa edges closer to an exit, continuing the club's extensive squad overhaul ahead of the new Betway Premiership season. The Limpopo-based side, currently sitting 5th in the Premier Soccer League with 44 points from 30 games (11W-11D-8L), has already seen several experienced players depart as they reshape the squad under new coach Cedric Kaze.

What’s happening with Tshibwabwa’s departure?

Sources close to the player indicate that discussions are underway for an amicable separation, though the process is still being finalized. A source told the Siya crew, "It looks like he could be added to the list of players leaving the club. The understanding is that both parties are expected to part ways amicably, but there are still processes that need to be finalised." Tshibwabwa’s potential exit would add to a growing list of departures, including club captain Linda Mntambo’s retirement and the releases of Lebogang Phiri, Bradley Grobler, Lesiba Nku, Thabang Monare, Sikhosonke Langa, and Rivaldo Coetzee.

Why is Sekhukhune United FC restructuring?

The club’s squad overhaul is part of a broader strategy to rebuild under Cedric Kaze’s leadership. With the team currently 25 points behind league leaders Orlando Pirates, the focus is on refreshing the squad for a stronger campaign next season. Players like Ronaldo Maarman, Katlego Mohamme, and Ryan Baartman have also been involved in the changes, signaling a significant shift in the team’s dynamics.

What’s next for Sekhukhune United FC?

As the club prepares for the upcoming season, the departure of Tshibwabwa and other experienced players raises questions about how the new-look squad will perform. With a goal difference of +5 (32 scored, 27 conceded) this season, the team will need to strengthen defensively and offensively. Fans will be watching closely to see how the remaining players and potential new signings adapt under Kaze’s management.
