Despite historical friction between SAFA and the PSL, top leadership from both entities displayed solidarity in Midrand as Danny Jordaan secured a fourth term.
The Premier Soccer League (PSL) maintained its status as SAFA’s Special Member after attending the re-election of Danny Jordaan as the association’s president for a fourth successive term.
Jordaan won the election by a landslide, receiving 157 votes compared to 82 for challenger Sandile Zungu. As designated voters alongside the regions and associate member associations, the PSL exercised its voting rights.
Over the years, it has been widely reported that the PSL and SAFA did not see eye to eye despite their affiliations under the SAFA and CAF constitutions, with the professional league often skipping the association’s events.
However, PSL head honchos — Chairman Irvin Khoza and Executive Committee member Kaizer Motaung — attended the quadrennial elective congress at Vodacom World in Midrand on Saturday afternoon.
