Baroka FC management back Wedson Nyirenda despite struggles in the PSL

With Baroka FC facing relegation from the Premier Soccer League (PSL), the club’s chairman Khurishi Mphahlele says they will stick with coach Wedson Nyirenda.

The Telkom Knockout Cup champions are languishing at the bottom of the table with 21 points and they will need to fight harder to avoide demotion back to the National First Division (NFD).

“Wedson Nyirenda is a seasonal coach, he knows what he is doing, he is an international coach. You cannot compare him to Kgoloko Thobejane. Kgoloko Thobejane doesn’t have anything,” said Mphahlele to LimSportsZone.

Despite Nyirenda’s having led the side to their first major trophy in his first season in the top flight, reports have suggested that former coach Kgoloko Thobejane could make his way back to the club.
