Cape Town City are in crisis mode as they fight for survival in the Betway Premiership. Sitting 15th on the log with two games to go – against Polokwane City and Stellenbosch FC – the Citizens are scrambling for solutions to avoid the dreaded relegation playoffs.
In a desperate bid to revive their fortunes, sources have confirmed the club is seriously considering a return for former star Ayanda Patosi.

The playmaker recently reached out to agent Mike Makaab, expressing his desire to return to competitive football, as reported by the Siya crew.
Those close to the player claim he is in peak physical condition, training hard in the gym, and looking sharper than he has in years.
His return is being seen not just as a tactical move but a symbolic effort to reconnect with what seems to be City’s lost football identity.
However, it may be a case of too little, too late. Reports in local media now suggest that high-profile midfielders Kamohelo Mokotjo and Thulani Serero, are among the players possibly on their way out – signalling a squad shake-up amid the chaos.
City’s problems run deeper than just results. This season has been marred by poor decisions, questionnable recruitment, and off-field instability.
Once known for their fearless football and smart scouting, the club now looks disjointed and uninspired.
City are also eyeing a move for Lesotho international Motebang Sera, as revealed by the Siya crew, hoping his arrival could inject attacking spark.

But questions remain about whether these late moves can compensate for a season of strategic blunders.
With Royal AM’s expulsion from the league offering only a slim lifeline, the coming weeks will determine whether Cape Town City can mount a great escape – or be remembered as a fallen force in the PSL.
