Welcome back, Soccer Laduma readers and compliments of the New Year!
-
I hope we are all back in one piece and that we thoroughly enjoyed the festive break with loved ones. I hope and trust that you have not forgotten to thank the Man Above who made it all possible for us to be here today and do what we love to do. I hope you bring positive energy to this year so that you can achieve your goals. We all must go into 2026 with a clear vision and know exactly where we are headed. If you had to choose between love and the world, what would you choose? Personally, I would go for love because with love I can conquer the world and I think that's the mentality we need to approach this year with. Let's make 2026 a year of love because we have been through a lot as a country. Let's embrace each other and focus on getting better. For the first time, we had Afcon playing throughout the festive season and we all enjoyed it. I wonder

One of the agents sabotaged me
Sibusiso Mabiliso’s football journey is difficult to understand. He built a big reputation as one of the best left-backs in the country during his first stint with AmaZulu FC from 2018 to 2021. The 26-year-old defender then made a dream move to Kaizer Chiefs, a team he grew up supporting. When he played 90 minutes in the Soweto Derby win over rivals Orlando Pirates in November 2021, he was the happiest man around. From there, it’s been downhill. What went wrong? Mabiliso opens up in this interview with Soccer Laduma’s Tiyani wa ka Mabasa.

Still InTouch With...TSWEU MOKORO (PART 1)
Tsweu Mokoro started playing football in Sasolburg for an amateur team before joining the renowned Barney Molekwane academy, where he played for three years before becoming a professional. In 2001, he was one of the aspiring players who attended trials at Free State Stars alongside the likes of Jimmy Kauleza, Gert Schalkwyk, Hleza Mofedi and David Radebe under coach Roy Barreto before signing. Mokoro joined SuperSport United during the 2002/03 season and helped the team win two trophies when Matsatsantsa won the 2004 SAA Supa8 and the 2005 Absa Cup. After he was deemed surplus to requirements at SuperSport United, the midfielder joined Ajax Cape Town where he had an unsuccessful six-month stint before joining Moroka Swallows. Mokoro later joined AmaZulu FC before finishing his career with African Warriors in the National First Division (now the Motsepe Foundation Championship).
