| Lesotho has moved up FIFA's rankings |
Lesotho has moved up four spots on the FIFA rankings
after a positive COSAFA Castle Cup in Namibia last month where Likuena
reached the quarterfinals. Lesotho is up to 151st in the world in the latest
FIFA rankings, 46th in Africa.
Likuena won three games at the tournament beating
Mauritius, Angola and Malawi in the group stage before losing to South Africa
in the quarterfinals.
So far Lesotho has only one match remaining in 2016, the
side’s final 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Algeria on September
2 in Algiers.
To transfer news and Vodacom Premier League side LCS have
reportedly made an offer for Likuena and Bantu midfielder Sepiriti Malefane.
Malefane has been at the Mafeteng giants for the last two seasons but he has
been training with Masheshena since
the start of pre-season two weeks ago.
Malefane would fill many needs for LCS. He can play
anywhere in defence and can also operate in midfield. He is also a young
talent, a stated requirement by LCS as the club seeks to re-build a squad that
can challenge for the league title.
Another Bantu player that may be prized away from
Mafeteng is midfielder Hlompho Kalake who remains strongly linked with a move
to Matlama. Tse Putsoa want to add
the Lesotho international to bolster their squad and as a back-up plan in case
Phafa Tšosane moves to LMPS.
Staying with Bantu, the club hosted a successful gala
dinner on Saturday evening at Avani Maseru Hotel. The event was graced by
Muvhango actor Sindi Dlathu who stars as Thandaza, Dingaan Mokebe (who is James
Motsamai) and Palo Mokoailane who plays Pheko Mokoena.
Lesedi FM radio presenter Nyakallo Leine, who is popularly
known as Ba2cada, also attended the glitzy show.
