Mweene has best Sundowns keepers at Club World Cup
The Mercury
|June 13, 2025
KENNEDY Mweene will complete a full circle in his career when he returns to the Fifa Club World Cup in the United States as Mamelodi Sundowns’ goalkeeper coach.
Such is the depth that he has at his disposal, the 40-year-old is adamant that he'll have a nice selection headache as well.
Mweene was one of the goalkeepers - along-side Denis Onyango and Wayne Sandilands - who were part of the Sundowns team at the 2016 Club World Cup in Japan.
He built on the experience that he garnered from that event as he played a key role in the Brazilians’ dominance of South African football.
The Afcon-winning goalkeeper with Zambia hung up his gloves two seasons ago, trading standing between the sticks to being a deputy goalkeeper coach at Sundowns. But after his superior Wendell Robinson was sacked alongside head coach Manqoba Mngqithi late last year, he ascended to the position of head goalkeeper coach.
Mweene has managed to get the best out of his goalkeepers, No 2 Onyango and first-choice Ronwen Williams, as Sundowns won the Premiership on home soil.

South Africa's G20 moment must continue beyond November
WHEN South Africa took on the G20 Presidency, it was more than just a ceremonial milestone. It marked a quiet yet significant moment in history - the first time an African country would set the tone, shape the agenda, and guide discussions in the world's most influential economic forum. For South Africans, used to a global narrative that often talks about Africa rather than to or with it, this was a rare and overdue shift. However, as the year comes to an end, a lingering concern remains: will the Presidency be remembered only as a November headline, or will it serve as the start of a lasting economic effort with real effects on the lives of South Africans and our regional neighbours?
