Having recently resolved issues behind the scenes with management at Sekhukhune United, midfielder Sipho Mbule will be looking to have his future secured soon to ensure he knows what's happening next season. 

Mbule is alleged to have said something to a technical team member recently, which landed him in hot water at the club, but things were resolved after meeting with the bosses at Babina Noko.

Indications are that head coach Eric Tinkler, who signed a two-year and three months deal with the club, is an admirer of Mbule and would be open to having the player on board beyond the end of this season. Mbule is on loan from Mamelodi Sundowns and his contract with the Tshwane giants expires at the end of June, though they have until the end of May to indicate if they want to take the option to extend his deal. 

The player is believed to be in Tinkler's plans going forward and the club could make an attempt to keep the player, but Kaizer Chiefs cannot be ruled out as yet.

Amakhosi are believed to be following the progress of the former SuperSport United midfielder, but it could be tricky for them if Sundowns take up the option. It would mean the Soweto giants have to pay a transfer fee to then make the player move to Natruena.

The 26-year-old, who turns 27 in three days, has made 15 appearances in all competitions for Sekhukhune, with two goals and two assists.

Get ready for a football spectacle like no other as the SportPesa Cup2025 takes centre stage from Friday 21 March to Sunday 23 March, at Edgemead Football Club.
