Xanti Pupuma to lead Milford in the Betway Premiership next season

Pupuma led the Stallions to the South African top-flight after finishing second in the Motsepe Foundation Championship and beating out Cape Town City and Magesi in the relegation/promotion play-offs.

He is busy preparing his squad for the upcoming campaign and has now revealed that both he and his technical team will remain in charge next term.

"I tried to run away, they [technical team] stopped me, I really tried," said Pupuma on UKhozi FM.

"I then decided that let's try one season and see. It was the technical team along with the players. But then, we're going to try and push."

"We will also keep uMhlathuze Sports Complex as our home ground this season. We are going to make more signings, but for now, we're not going to reveal the names of players we are interested in signing," added the Chairman on KickOff.

Pupuma has also outlined his target for the new season, saying: "The aim is to try and get to 30 points as quickly as possible.

"When we have reached it, whatever we will get beyond that target will be a bonus.

“We will then see how much we can get and where we end the season. We believe if we get 30 points, we'll be okay to settle and rebuild on that.”
