Cape Town City’s 1-0 defeat means they are officially relegated from the PSL, opening the door for the Buccaneers to finally get their man, a player they tried to sign in January and reportedly vowed to try again this offseason – now things just easier. “One of those reinforcements could be a long-time target, Jaedin Rhodes.

Idris knows when to keep it relaxed. The tailoring kept things crisp, but the overall feel was easygoing and warm-weather appropriate. Then came the trousers. Somewhere between linen and “maybe this wasn’t meant to be seen under sunlight,” the sheerness was hard…
