In a dramatic turn of events, the South African Football Association (Safa) is in advanced discussions with Tebogo Motlanthe for his sensational return to the organisation.
Motlanthe, who left his CEO position at Safa House in May 2023, is returning as COO and will be working closely with CEO Lydia Monyepao.
TimesLIVE has been reliably informed that a majority of the Safa national executive committee (NEC) members are in favour of this move and want Motlanthe to start as soon as possible.
“They reached out to him on several occasions and he will indeed be returning to Safa House. I just don’t know what his return means for the current CEO (Monyepao) but I guess they will have to find a way of working together,” said an informant who did not want to be named.
