Sipho Mbule to Meet with Sekhukhune United to Resolve Misconduct Allegation

Sekhukhune United midfielder Sipho Mbule is set to meet with the club’s management to address allegations of misconduct involving an outburst directed at a technical team member. The player, who is currently on loan from Mamelodi Sundowns, has reportedly been involved in an incident that has raised concerns within the club. However, sources indicate that the matter is not expected to lead to the termination of his loan deal, and Mbule is likely to complete his short-term contract with Babina Noko.
Mbule’s agent, Mike Makaab, confirmed that the player will meet with Sekhukhune United later today to resolve the issue and ensure a smooth continuation of his stay at the club. “I have spoken to the club and I have spoken to Sipho (Mbule). He is meeting the club this afternoon, and we will let you know what the outcome is. We will wait and see,” Makaab said to the Siya crew, opting not to delve further into the specifics of the incident.
Despite the controversy, Mbule has been one of Sekhukhune’s standout performers this season, making 14 appearances in all competitions and playing a crucial role in their push for CAF competition qualification. His impressive form has drawn attention, with speculation surrounding the possibility of Mamelodi Sundowns exercising the option in his contract to bring him back to Chloorkop. However, his future remains uncertain, with many discussions still pending regarding his next steps.
Mbule, affectionately known as ‘Master Chef,’ will be looking to clear the air with the club and continue contributing to Sekhukhune’s ambitions for the remainder of the season. Meanwhile, the club is undergoing changes at the coaching level, having parted ways with head coach Lehlohonolo Seema. Former Cape Town City coach Eric Tinkler is a strong contender to take over the managerial position, potentially on a short-term basis until the end of the campaign, before a longer-term decision is made.
As the situation unfolds, all eyes will be on Mbule’s meeting with Sekhukhune United, with the player aiming to resolve the matter amicably and focus on helping the team achieve its goals.
