PSL breaks silence on fixture delay

JOHANNESBURG – The Premier Soccer League has broken their silence on the delay behind the release of next season’s fixtures.

It is not quite clear how the fixtures are going to look as there remains the unresolved court case between the PSL, Sekhukhune United FC and Royal AM.

According to the league’s acting CEO Mato Madlala, decisions will be made regarding the matter following an Exco meeting next Thursday.

“We have an executive meeting on Thursday, that’s when it’s going to be decided and then there will be an official word after that,” Madlala told KickOff. com.

PSL media officer Fhatuwani Mpfuni further confirmed that the release of the fixture list, which is traditionally released in July, will be done once a final outcome is reached by the League’s executive committee.

“No, nothing has been confir med yet. We will definitely send out a statement as it is confir med,” he added.

With the likes of Kaizer Chiefs back in the transfer market following their FIFA ban, it promises to be a very entertaining 2021/ 22 season.

Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns have also bolstered their squads with numerous new signings thus far, while presumed newcomers Sekhukhune United have already confirmed nine signings.

On the touchline, a number of changes have also been made with former Golden Arrows head coach Mandla Ncikazi joining The Buccaneers, while Amakhosi have brought back tactician Stuart Baxter.
