Black Leopards have roped in Lehlohonolo Seema to their technical team after his recent sacking as Chippa United coach.

Seema was relieved of his duties at the Chilli Boys last week.

Seema’s firing led to chaos at Chippa United after the club initially appointed Luc Eymael as his replacement, only for that decision to lead to a public outcry.

Chippa United then opted for Dan Malesela as the man to lead the club into 2021.

Lehlohonolo Seema is a former Orlando Pirates captain and has now been named as an assistant to head coach Dylan Kerr.

Lesotho-born Seema played 23 matches for his country of birth. He was also a stalwart for the Buccaneers and Bloemfontein Celtic who whom it he played 63 and 113 matches, respectively.
