With the Premier Soccer League elections a few months away, it is unclear whether Irvin Khoza will stand for re-election.

Premier Soccer League chairperson Irvin Khoza talks to the media at PSL headquarters in Johannesburg on 29 July 2022.

In addition, the 76-year-old has served as chairperson of the PSL since 2003, and was re-elected unopposed in the last elections in November 2020. By the time this year’s elections come around, Khoza will have been in one of the most important jobs in South African football for 21 years.alluded to the fact that the Iron Duke’s family has called on the patriarch of the Khoza household to step down from his position so that he can enjoy the fruits of his labour.

Nothing ever came of this, despite the frosty relationship between Khoza and Jordaan that has played its part in holding back the growth of South African football. SuperSport United boss Stan Matthews at the SuperSport United Player Awards held at Randpark Golf Club in Johannesburg on 22 May 2023. They were taken over by Royal AM and Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila respectively. Khoza has said the league’s hands are tied in this regard.

The longer Madlala has remained in her acting capacity, the more questions have been raised about a club boss holding such an influential position, which would traditionally be held by an independent individual, with no ties to the league.
