Retained by the club are captain Linda Mntambo, Chibuike Ohizu, Daniel Cardoso, Vusimuzi Ncube and Tresor Tshibwabwa.

Tinkler took over the reins at Sekhunkhune from Lehlohonolo Seema and led the club to a fourth-place league finish.

A club statement read: "Sekhukhune United FC is proud to announce the contract extensions of these senior players: Linda Mntambo, Chibuike Ohizu, Daniel Cardoso, Vusimuzi Ncube, and Tresor Tshibwabwa.

"Their commitment and fighting spirit continue with the Babina Noko family!"

Sekhukhune have, meanwhile, snapped up Miguel Timm from Orlando Pirates as well as Sydney Malivha, Thuso Mogale and Dan Ndhlovu from Baroka.

Ali Sangare departs after joining Babina Noko in 2022.

"Your safe hands, big saves, and fearless heart made us proud every time you stepped on the pitch. It's been an honour having you, guard our posts.

"You'll always be part of this family. We wish you nothing but success, in your next chapter," said Sekhukhune, who could replace the keeper with former player Toaster Nsabata - currently contracted to ZESCO United.
