Mamelosi Sundowns chairman Tlhopie Motsepe reveals the club are in discussions with coach Miguel Cardoso over contract renewal

Tlhopie Motsepe has confirmed Mamelodi Sundowns will be engaging coach Miguel Cardoso for further contract negotiations.

The Sundowns chairman disclosed that they have been in negotiations with the Portuguese-born coach over possible contract renewal at the Chloorkop side.

Motsepe revealed yesterday when the club touched down at OR Tambo International Airport after their Caf Champions League triumph over ASFAR in Morocco.

"I believe that where the club is heading right now is in a positive direction, and we will obviously go into the next few months now and have discussions, but definitely the discussions are already in a much more positive position than when we had discussions before the coach even joined the club. I think that's as far as I should say out of respect for the coach and the discussions we are going to have as a board," said Motsepe.

Sundowns are in cloud nine following the North African triumph as it now sees them with two continental victories in 10 years.

Their maiden continental victory was in 2016.
