Agent Dismisses Al Ahly Move For Teboho Mokoena, Reaffirms Sundowns Commitment

Teboho Mokoena's representative, Glyn Binkin, in an exclusive interview with SportsBoom.co.za, has shut down the widely spread speculation of his possible move from Mamelodi Sundowns to Egyptian team Al Ahly next season. 

Binkin reiterated the midfielder's commitment to his current employers, Mamelodi Sundowns. 

Al Ahly Speculation

In the past couple of weeks, there have been widespread reports on Mokoena's future at Mamelodi Sundowns, with the reports speculating that the midfielder could be moving north of Africa to join the giants of African football, Al Ahly. 

Mokoena has been an important cog in Mamelodi Sundowns' success over the years, and he proved it this season by playing a vital role in securing the club's spot in the final of the CAF Champions League. 

With his dominance on the field, naturally, opposition coaches all around the continent have sung their praises, a feat that has given rise to many unfounded speculations. 

Mokoena's agent, Glyn Binkin, in an exclusive interview with SportsBoom.co.za, has shut down all the speculations. 

Binkin reiterated that Mokoena is committed to Mamelodi Sundowns as his contract with the Pretoria-based unit runs until 2030. 

With the club looking to retain the domestic league and win the CAF Champions League, many fans will be relieved that their star player is to stay at Sundowns. 

"To be honest, at almost every single transfer window, there is speculation linking Teboho with Al Ahly, but as you eluded to, he has a contract with Sundowns until 2029, in which case Al Ahly would contact Sundowns if they were interested in signing the player," Binkin told SportsBoom.co.za.  

"For now, Teboho is focused on the league, the Champions League and thereafter the World Cup, and after that, we can sit down and assess what options may exist in terms of his future at the club."

Aubrey Modiba

Full-back Aubrey Modiba's stand at Sundowns has also been under the microscope.

Modiba's contract was set to expire in June 2026, a feat that led to many speculations about possible transfers. 

However, Sundowns has since extended his contract by a year, with the expiry date now set for June 2027. 

Despite Sundowns having shown commitment to Modiba, no matter how little it is, his agent Binkin says they could reconsider their position after the 2026 FIFA World Cup. 

"Aubrey has extended his contract with Sundowns until 30 June 2027 with an option to extend to 30 June 2028. So as with Teboho, he is under contract to Sundowns," said Binkin.

"For now, he is focused on the league, the Champions League and thereafter the World Cup, and after that, we can sit down and assess what options may exist in terms of his future."
