Man United heading to SA?

Johannesburg - Manchester United are coming to South Africa in July to play in a four-club tournament that will include Ghanaian club Asante Kotoko, according to a report on the Sowetan website.

There was no confirmation of the visit from the Red Devils but it is understood that United representatives were in South Africa last week to discuss logistics.

United were in South Africa three seasons ago to play in the Vodacom Challenge, where they hammered Kaizer Chiefs 4-0 in the final in Pretoria.

AmaZulu will be United's first opponents at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban on July 18. The match will coincide with the 94th birthday celebrations of Nelson Mandela. The final of the tournament is planned for Soccer City on July 21.

No! I think the smart thing to do is start again with a younger skipper ...

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
