CHAIRMAN TARGETS ANOTHER AFRICAN TITLE

As seen with the star on Sundowns’ club emblem, the Tshwane giants won the CAF Champions League in 2016. Is 2023 the moment for a second African title?

After an invisible march to the semi-finals, Sundowns are expected to go all the way to become the new African champions, and chairman Tlhopane Motsepe agrees.

“We believe in the team, we believe in the vision of our president [Patrice Motsepe], and it’s what has been put forward from the moment he stepped into his role,” said Motsepe via SABC Sports.

“As club president, he wanted to win the Champions League and in 2016, Hlompho Kekana and the likes managed to do that, and it was a wonderful moment for our club.
