Marumo Gallants officially appoint Mohafe as new head coach

Mohafe joins Bahlabane Ba Ntwa after an impressive stint with Limpopo based Polokwane City, leading them to successive top eight finishes in the Betway Premiership.

"Marumo Gallants FC is pleased to announce the appointment of Phuti Mohafe as the club's new head coach," read the club statement on social media.

"Mohafe joins Marumo Gallants from Polokwane City FC, where he served as Head Coach and played a significant role in the club's recent progress and competitive performances in the Premier Soccer League.

"He is widely respected within South African football circles and brings a wealth of coaching experience, strong leadership qualities, and an in-depth understanding of the local football landscape."

Gallants will want to avoid another relegation threatened season, after ending the season in 14th spot on the table, just above the drop zone after a season that saw them part ways with Alexandre Lafitte and later Jamil Benouahi, with the latter only leading the team in one match.

Mohafe is expected to begin his pre-season preparations with the side this week.
