Stating that the team hoped for improvement after the FIFA international break, insiders remain keen on the possibility of Ntseki stepping in. Is Richards Bay the right fit for Ntseki? A source with knowledge of the club’s operations shared, “Molefi Ntseki is available and ready to join any team in the PSL if an opportunity comes his way. There has been talk of him possibly following Arthur Zwane, his former colleague at Kaizer Chiefs, who recently took over at AmaZulu.
