Betway Premiership side Sekhukhune United have confirmed the appointment of Lehlohonolo Seema as head coach with a new technical team.
The club recently parted ways with German coach Peter Hyballa who never took charge of the team in an official match. His time at Sekhukhune was marred by a sex scandal. This led to his departure a month after taking the reins.
MacDonald Makhubedu was in charge when the club played in the MTN8 quarter-final against Cape Town City FC.
Sekhukhune lost the game 1-0 at home, with CT City booking a semi-final spot against Orlando Pirates, set to be played over two legs.
LEHLOHONOLO SEEMA AND HIS NEW TECHNICAL TEAM CONFIRMED
“In preparation for the new and exciting 2024/25 Betway Premiership season and to meet the demands of another CAF Confederation Cup campaign, Sekhukhune United have made some changes to the technical team,” the club announced on Thursday.
“We are therefore delighted to welcome back to the fold as Head Coach Lehlohonolo Seema. He will be joined on the bench by another familiar face, in Kaitano Tembo. The latter fills the senior Coach position vacated by McDonald Makhubedu, who will take up the role of Babina Noko’s Sporting Director.”
Seema and Tembo are returning to the club for a second time. They both previously held the position of head coach, but their first stints ended with their dismissals.
