PSL transfer news: Mbesuma, Mbule, Mofokeng, Moremi, Rulani
Premier Soccer League (PSL) clubs are preparing for the transfer window to open in the coming weeks.
The Betway Premiership might have ended but expect more player movement from now until mid-September. While champions Mamelodi Sundowns are preparing for the FIFA Club World Cup, Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates will look to capitalise and bring in top players to challenge for top honours.
Last year, Amakhosi was the busiest PSL team in the transfer window, bringing in seven players before adding three more in the January period. Under Nasreddine Nabi, the Soweto giants won the Nedbank Cup but failed to improve in the league.
Collins Mbesuma, who played for Amakhosi in the mid-2000s, has offered his services to his former club.
'A PSL club? Of course, Khosi for Life. At my peak, I could be solving their current goal-scoring crisis. I'm a striker's coach, you know, so I'm available to help any team,' Mbesuma told KickOff .
The midfielder was been linked with Amakhosi for several weeks, having reportedly parted ways with Mamelodi Sundowns. His agent, Mike Makaab revealed he offered the ex-Richards Bay midfielder to Amakhosi
'Let me set the record straight. Sipho Mbule has been offered to Kaizer Chiefs,' the agent admitted on X.
'It is up to the club to make the decision and we need to respect that decision.'
Another player on the move is AmaZulu winger Tshepang Moremi. According to Soccer Laduma , the Buccaneers had secured a three-year deal with the KwaZulu-Natal-based talent.
'We can say that this Orlando Pirates and Moremi deal is as good as done,' an insider told Soccer Laduma . Yes, it's believed that Mamelodi Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs were also interested in him, but Pirates have won this race. It's as good as done at the moment,' the insider added.
Another coach who could rejoin Orlando Pirates is Rulani Mokwena. With Jose Riveiro with Al Ahly, Mokwena is amongst the favourites to take over from the Spaniard. The 37-year-old has a short, unsuccessful stint with Tunisian giants Wydad Casablanca.
Orlando Pirates will be the PSL team to watch this transfer period, having already released several players. One top player set to leave for Europe is Relebohile Mofokeng.

Rulani: ‘I probably good enough to coach Orlando Pirates'
Former Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates coach Rulani Mokwena is home in Mzansi after leaving Moroccan giants Wydad Casablanca. Naturally, the two-time Betway Premiership champion has been linked with Orlando Pirates, who are coachless after Jose Riveiro's departure to Al Ahly. While the Buccaneers are yet to name Riveiro's successor, Mokwena remains heavily linked with the Sea Robbers. Percy Tau sends a message to Chiefs and Sundowns Speaking to Robert Marawa on 947, Mokwena was asked if he had gained relevant experience to return to coaching the Buccaneers. Mokwena said, 'When I coached Orlando Pirates, most of the feeling was that I had potential. There was a strong connotation from a family perspective. But now the connection is not so much from a family perspective. Rulani Mokwena and the Orlando Pirates chairman, Dr Irvin Khoza.

And now there's a strong feeling that, as a coach, I'm probably good enough to coach Orlando Pirates, and I'm grateful for that.

Kaizer Chiefs transfers: New Bafana goalkeeper
Kaizer Chiefs are anticipated to find and introduce a new goalkeeper for the 2025/26 season. Bruce Bvuma, Brandon Petersen and Fiacre Ntwari earned opportunities but failed to seize them fully. While Petersen and Bvuma signed new deals last season, and Bvuma joined from TS Galaxy last winter, Amakhosi is expected to part ways with at least one of them. Rumours suggest Ntwari could be sacrificed for the purpose of opening up a foreign spot. The Premier Soccer League permits no more than five foreign players on each team.

'Kaizer Chiefs are set to make an enquiry to Sekhukhune United over goalkeeper Renaldo Leaner, who has broken into the senior national team,' iDiski Times reported. Kaizer Chiefs midfielder fights drug addiction 'The 27-year-old iKamva graduate earned his way into the Sekhukhune line-up shortly after the arrival of Eric Tinkler and made a huge impression, more notably in the Nedbank Cup, where he pulled off a Man of the Match display in their 1-0 loss to Mamelodi Sundowns. The publication further confirmed that Sekhukhune are in no position to lose Learner. 'Babina Noko have since parted ways with veteran goalkeeper Badra Ali Sangare and Lloydt Kazapua, and while they are in the market for replacements, the chance of granting a sale to Kaizer Chiefs for Learner remains slim at present,' the outlet concluded.
