The head coach of orlando pirates wishes to leave the position due to his wife’s serious health condition.
Over the weekend, an unexpected rumor surfaced suggesting that the manager of the Orlando Pirates is thinking about relinquishing his position as the league’s top player.
There are many South African football enthusiasts who oppose the chairman’s resignation, even though it seemed like a good idea to them.
Palacios, a seasoned football coach who has been with the Pirates since 1996, has also voiced his worries.
Along with Dr. Kaizer Motaung and the co-executive, Khoza brought in a wide range of sponsors over his final 21 years as the PSL chairman to aid in the league’s development.
This comprises, among other large corporations in Africa, three of the largest mobile telecommunications providers: MTN, Vodacom, and Telkom.
It’s interesting to note that, as was initially reported, if Dr. Khoza does in fact give the twig to someone else, the sponsors believe they will be losing a valuable partner.

AUGUSTO PALACIOS’S MENTION
“It is impossible to compare his love of football. When it comes to football, he and Kaizer Motaung are leading the nation,” Palacios told KickOff.
“But the Chairman has revolutionized the league; before to him, all of the clubs were having financial difficulties. The PSL has always piqued his curiosity. It made no difference to him if he was the Orlando Pirates chairman.
“He oversaw South Africa’s security for the FIFA World Cup in France in 1998. In addition, he chaired the FIFA World Cup in South Africa in 2010. FIFA acknowledged him,” he clarified.
“I was at Pirates starting in 1996, and I’ve known him since 1995. Recall that there were clubs who owed players money. Take a look at how he is now using the Motsepe Foundation sponsorship to assist the National First Division. If he were not in the leadership, which sponsors would be drawn to our clubs?
“He solely wanted the sponsors to help the Orlando Pirates and never took advantage of them. His goal was for sponsors to support football in its entirety, not only Pirates. For instance, all teams are now eligible to compete for the Carling Cup, which was previously only open to the Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs. Just the fact that he attends to national football matters proves that he is not self-centered.
Recall that he had previously served as SAFA’s vice president. We would be the top footballing nation in Africa only if SAFA and the PSL can cooperate, the seasoned development coach went on.
“However, if he stands down, who will take his place given his qualifications and experience? Where will the sponsors find someone with his level of experience? That is all that worries me. You need an experienced person to ensure that everything will go as planned for you as the sponsor.
“Managing the Premier League is a challenging task that requires a great deal of responsibility and attraction. Have you noticed how many clubs have traveled abroad as champions in the DStv Diski Challenge?
“I don’t think age matters; he may be 76 years old, but that doesn’t matter.” It is still common to find 75-year-olds coaching in the Premier League and the PSL. Hugo Broos, the Bafana Bafana coach, is nearly 70 years old, but he still has a great deal of enthusiasm.
Furthermore, Dr. Khoza is in excellent health and does not smoke or drink. I’m really familiar with him. consuming wholesome food. We’ve collaborated for almost 27 years. He has ten more years to play football.
And his kids are doing great too. At Pirates, Nkosana is performing admirably. He has been directing him ever since. It’s a common misconception that Nkosana is a recent arrival to football, but that is untrue. Thus, this is shocking news to me, and I hope he stays on for another ten years,” he said.
