Sekhukhune Insiders Address Tinkler Rumours & Seema's Future

Despite recent media speculation suggesting otherwise, Lehlohonolo Seema remains firmly in Sekhukhune United's plans, the Siya crew has been informed.   

Under Seema's guidance, Babina Noko are performing well in the Betway Premiership, currently sitting fifth on the standings after 16 matches despite having picked only two points from their last four matches.

The team had faced both Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates in two of those matches, as well as Stellenbosch FC and SuperSport United.

With seven wins and four draws in 11 matches, things aren't looking bad for Sekhukhune, with the team still on track to surpass last season's fourth-place finish, which secured them a CAF Confederation Cup spot.

Additionally, Seema, alongside senior coach Kaitano Tembo and assistant Paulus Masehe, has successfully led the team into the Last 16 of the Nedbank Cup under the strategic guidance of Sporting Director MacDonald Makhubedu.

The Sekhukhune technical team has received unwavering support from management, who are keen to build a strong and successful club.

Despite reports from other media linking Eric Tinkler, who recently left Cape Town City, to a role within the Sekhukhune team, sources close to Babina Noko indicate that there are no plans to replace Seema. 

The club remains committed to its vision under Seema's leadership and continues to back his tactical approach and contributions.

With the current trajectory of success, Sekhukhune United are focused on achieving greater milestones in both domestic and continental competitions.

As the team progresses through the season, Seema's role remains pivotal, and all indications point to a future where he continues to lead the club toward its ambitious goals.

"He (Seema) remains the head coach and there are no plans to replace him, as far as I know. All is well and the coach and his technical team are supported by the management to continue improving the team. I am not aware of any coaching changes that are planned," said the source.

Even though Seema's position seems to be secure at Sekhukhune for now, it remains to be seen if a coach like Tinkler could be an option in future if the club's form stutters later in their campaign.
