Magesi FC has appointed Morgan Mammila as their new Director of Football. The experienced administrator was officially unveiled by the club on Thursday morning.

What happened?

Mammila's appointment comes after Magesi FC's difficult campaign under coaches John Maduka and Allan Freese, where they accumulated just 24 points from 30 league matches to finish 15th on the log. Their top-flight exit was officially sealed in the play-offs following a costly 1-1 draw against Milford FC at Seshego Stadium. Magesi FC is currently 45 points behind leaders Orlando Pirates in the title race.

Why it matters for Magesi FC

Mammila spent the bulk of the 2025/26 campaign away from the high-pressure touchlines, but he used his six-month hiatus to scout local talent and monitor games from the stands. The outspoken administrator had openly expressed his desire to join a team in his home province of Limpopo to fight for top-flight promotion.

What comes next?

With Mammila on board, Magesi FC will be looking to improve their performance in the upcoming season. The club has scored 24 goals and conceded 43, resulting in a -19 goal difference. As of now, Magesi FC is focused on rebuilding and preparing for the new season, with their recent form being WLLLD. Mammila's experience and knowledge will be vital in helping the team achieve their goals. The appointment of Morgan Mammila as Director of Football is a significant step for Magesi FC, and fans will be eagerly waiting to see how the team performs under his guidance.
