With clubs around the league signing players, while some are finalising their pre-season plans, Polokwane City and Black Leopards appear to be in a dilemma, as the two clubs are yet to have their coaches for the new season confirmed.
After leading Polokwane to fifth place finish on the log this past season, Jozef Vukusic announced his resignation from the club, while he was away in Slovakia with his family.
Dylan Kerr from Limpopo rivals Black Leopards did the same by vacating his coaching position at the club, after saving them from relegation.
However, sources close to Rise and Shine and Lidoda Duvha have indicated that both clubs do not seem to have accepted the coaches' resignations. It is understood that both clubs expect the coaches back to lead their respective teams for pre-season.
