Mochudi Centre Chiefs chairperson, Victor Kobe has confirmed the club has penned a 15-year management deal with a sporting consortium led by former Bafana Bafana player, Stanton Fredericks.

The consortium is called Stanton Fredericks Sports Group and will be the 100% shareholder stake of the Kgatleng giants for the next 15 years.

The model we have with our new partners aligns well with the playing licence. They also align well with our vision and dream, we did not want a partner that will just pour money into the club," said Kobe.
