SuperSport status ‘sold’ as Celtic eyes revival
The Star
|July 02, 2025
ONE of local football's worst-kept secrets is set to be confirmed later today, with SuperSport United announcing the sale of their status.
For most of the past campaign, rumours abounded that pay channel MultiChoice who own the club were keen to exit the football space, having already ended their sponsorship of the elite league via DStv.
It is common knowledge that MultiChoice have faced financial difficulties in recent years, and there is speculation they may be acquired by French company Canal+.
Independent Media has reliably learnt that the sale of the club’s Betway Premiership status has been finalised at R50 million to a Bloemfontein-based consortium, reportedly including Sports and Recreation Minister Gayton McKenzie.
The group is intent on reviving Bloemfontein Celtic.
