SuperSport Sale Confirmed, Siwelele FC Chairman Revealed

SuperSport United are expected to meet with management over news of a sale.

Soccer Laduma has been led to believe that a meeting has been called for some of the staff at SuperSport United, amid concerns within the camp regarding the future of the club. 

According to information received by Soccer Laduma, there's been a lot of uncertainty within the camp, especially over the last few days, with players starting pre-season training without fully knowing what the future holds in terms of a sale of their top flight status.

Soccer Laduma reported earlier this week that players had been assured that the club was not for sale, but it appears that's not the case, with reports suggesting that the new owners are preparing to take over and will operate under the name Siwelele Football Club.

Word reaching Soccer Laduma now is that some staff members have been called to have meetings, where it's believed that news of the sale could be broken to them.

"There are some members who have been called to the office today and it could be about the sale," an informant said to Soccer Laduma.

A sale would see the club moving to Bloemfontein, leaving some of the players in a difficult situation of having to change provinces unexpectedly.

Indications are that a R50 million fee has been agreed for the sale of the club and announcements will be made in the near future, with the Betway Premiership set to kick off in August.

SuperSport International has since confirmed the sale of SuperSport United to Siwelele Football Club, pending approval by the PSL Executive Committee.

The chairman of the club has been revealed in a statement sent out by SuperSport International. The chairman of the club is Calvin Le John.
