‘Yeye’ eyeing PSL return, as a coach!

The intelligent midfielder is rumoured to be eyeing a return to the PSL albeit in a coaching role this time around!

“It is true, Yeye is coaching Pimville Young Stars. It is an amateur club which is popular in Soweto,” a source told SoccerLaduma last year regarding the ex Kaizer Chiefs star.

“The guy is very passionate about football, and he still wants to go for more coaching badges to add to the ones that he has already acquired. He would love to see himself back in the PSL one day, as a coach to give back to the game.”

Yeye joined the Amakhosi in 2008 before going on to amass 183 highly successful appearances in all competitions for the Glamour Boys.

The Bafana Bafana international formed a pivotal part of Stuart Baxter’s two time league winning Kaizer Chiefs side.

At various stages of his career he also enjoyed stints at Hellenic, Dangerous Darkies, PJ Stars, Jomo Cosmos, Highlands Park and TS Galaxy. In addition, Reneilwe Letsholonyane has 50 Bafana Bafana caps to his name.
