Sekhukhune United in advanced talks with veteran PSL striker
Sekhukhune United are reportedly in advanced talks to sign veteran PSL striker Bradley Grobler from SuperSport United.
Grobler's contract with Matsatsantsa expires on 30 June, and while he waited for them, they delayed offering him a new deal.
And he subsequently looked elsewhere with Sekhukhune United showing huge interest in his services.
Sekhukhune United have relied on Chibuike Ohizu and Andy Boyeli for goals, but with Grobler on board, they could be stronger upfront.
The 37-year-old marksman is one of the most prolific strikers in the history of the PSL with 115 goals across all competitions.
Grobler will reunite with coach Eric Tinkler whom he worked with at SupersSport United eight years ago. SuperSport United striker Bradley Grobler kicks the ball: Image via Facebook @SuperSport United FC
'SABC Sport can confirm Sekhukhune United have made progress in talks with forward Bradley Grobler, who is a priority target for coach Eric Tinkler ahead of next season,' reports SABC Sport .
'It's understood the finer details are still being ironed out, however, Sekhukhune have tabled an offer that Grobler has already accepted in principle, subject to all paperwork being signed and approved.'

Orlando Pirates coaching contender ruled out
Orlando Pirates find themselves at the centre of coaching speculation following Jose Riveiro's surprise departure to Egyptian giants Al Ahly. While several names have been floated, one has now been firmly ruled out, Moroccan tactician Abdeslam Ouaddou. Despite his recent success with Marumo Gallants, Ouaddou will not be taking charge at the Soweto giants. A source confirmed that the former defender, who made waves at Fulham, is not in the running for the role. 'No, the former Marumo Gallants coach is not in the running for the Pirates job at the moment,' the source revealed. Ouaddou's tenure at Gallants was brief but impressive. Appointed in March 2025 to replace Dan Malesela, he took over a side battling for survival. Under his guidance, the team managed to retain its top-flight status, a significant feat considering their turbulent campaign following the purchase of Moroka Swallows' league status at the start of the season. His work didn't go unnoticed. Praise flowed in for his tactical acumen and his ability to handle pressure in South Africa's top tier. 'He is a good coach who showed at his previous clubs that he can become a world-class coach if given a chance at a big club with the right structure and support,' the source added. 'He is tactically astute and has experience in continental football, but that's not the direction Pirates are looking at taking right now.' Although Pirates have not yet made an official announcement on who will succeed Riveiro, the club appears to be casting its net in a different direction. The search for a head coach continues behind closed doors, with supporters eagerly awaiting an appointment that could shape the club's future ambitions. Who will suit Orlando Pirates best as a head coach, if not Ouaddou? Let us know by leaving a comment below or send a WhatsApp to 060 011 021 1.
