Mamelodi Sundowns football club is reportedly considering Michael Loftman as a potential assistant coach. Loftman, who previously worked as a performance analyst for the first team at Orlando Pirates, is set to take up the position at Sundowns following the departure of Steve Komphela.
Rhulani Mokwena, the current head coach for the Sundowns, is keen on assembling a strong technical team to guide the team to further success. Loftman’s appointment would be a step towards achieving this goal.
Loftman, who has previously worked with Mokwena at Orlando Pirates, would bring his analytical expertise to the Sundowns. He has a strong background in European football, having worked as a Football Development Coach for Tottenham Hotspur from 2011 to 2013.
If appointed, Loftman would join Manqoba Mngqithi as an assistant coach for Sundowns. Mngqithi is an experienced coach who has worked with Mokwena at Sundowns.
Loftman’s appointment as assistant coach could create a powerful synergy between Mokwena’s leadership, Loftman’s analytical expertise, and Mngqithi’s guidance. This could potentially help the Sundowns achieve new heights of success.
While the official announcement of Loftman’s appointment is yet to be made, Sundowns fans and football enthusiasts are eagerly awaiting the developments. The forthcoming PSL season will reveal how the new coaching team impacts the Sundowns’ performance on the field.
