The board of Mamelodi Sundowns was particularly keen to appoint South African coaches and express its commitment and confidence in the talent and ability of our local coaches. Manqoba, Rhulani and the Technical Team at Sundowns will focus on defending the PSL and the other titles that we won during our historic 50-year anniversary.

As things stand, ‘prevailing opinion’ means although Mngqithi and Mokwena are both Head Coaches, should at some point they not agree on a certain decision, Manqoba’s decision will be taken as final.
