Black Leopards Part Ways with Maxwell Konadu After Tough Loss!

Black Leopards have parted ways with Ghanaian coach Maxwell Konadu following a 2-1 loss to Lerumo United on Saturday. The defeat left Leopards in 10th place in the Motsepe Foundation Championship, with 23 points from 17 matches, 11 points behind leaders Durban City FC.

It was anticipated that Konadu, who signed a three-year deal with the team in July 2024 from Ghana's Nsoatreman FC, would assist Leopards in winning back the Betway Premiership. His tenure with Leopards was characterized by lackluster performance, despite his prior experience as an assistant coach for the Ghana Black Stars.

Stan Nkoane, a coach at Venda Football Academy, has already been contacted by the Leopards to become their new head coach. Nkoane, who just joined VFA a month ago, could soon take action to assist the struggling squad get back on track.
