Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Morgan Khune was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 30. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Market24 Aug 2026

Erick Williams asks to leave Black Aces

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Lautaro Rivero due for a Black Aces medical

Everything agreed with River Plate, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Samuel Edozie will not be coming to Black Aces

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Southampton is saying, and nobody at Black Aces is enjoying the guessing.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Black Aces

Percy Grobler and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Black Aces rebuffed over Thiago Silvero

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Vélez have kept their man, and Black Aces go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Percy Hlatshwayo falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match22 Aug 2026

Black Aces come up short against Mamelodi Sundowns

Mamelodi Sundowns left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Market24 Aug 2026

Eyes on Siyabonga Ngcobo again

The phone has started ringing about Siyabonga Ngcobo again, and this time the name on the line is JS Saoura. Black Aces are listening politely and promising nothing.

Black Aces turn down Gubbio for Siyabonga Modiba

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Too dear: Black Aces walk away from Divine Lunga

$340.0K was the most the club would pay and Mamelodi Sundowns were asking for more. Deals like this are revived in the last week of a window roughly half the time, and everybody involved knows it.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Black Aces

Sifiso Grobler and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Black Aces

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Percy Hlatshwayo was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Squad3 Aug 2026

The formation has left Gift Motupa behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Black Aces will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Siyabonga Zwane signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Siyabonga Zwane commits to Black Aces for another 1 years.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

A loan move for Thabo Mokwena is in the works

Black Aces have made the call to Kaizer Chiefs. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Morgan Khune knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Black Aces, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market3 Aug 2026

Erick Williams is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Black Aces has been clear about where Erick Williams stands, which is more than many ever get.
