Premier Soccer League clubs have voted to suspend relegation for the current campaign, sparing Dynamos and Highlanders from potential demotion alongside eight other teams that faced the threat of dropping to lower divisions. The decision forms part of a restructuring plan where four promoted sides will create a 22-team competition requiring 42 matches per club during the expanded season.
Kwekwe United, whose relegation was confirmed two months earlier, will rejoin the top flight under the arrangement. The league will implement international standards by cutting to 20 teams afterward, meaning six clubs face demotion when the transition concludes. Final weekend fixtures between sides like Dynamos against FC Platinum and Chicken Inn...

FIFA has barred Lamontville Golden Arrows from registering players for three consecutive transfer windows after the South African club failed to fulfill a financial settlement with former striker Knox Mutizwa. The Zimbabwean international, who became the Durban side's all-time top scorer with 63 goals across 231 appearances during eight years at the club, departed under undisclosed circumstances before joining league rivals Richards Bay.
The governing body's ruling prohibits Golden Arrows from acquiring talent domestically or internationally until the outstanding payment is made. Mutizwa's two spells with the club established him as a key figure before his exit, and he has since helped Richards Bay reach the Carling Knockout...

Zimbabwe international defender Teenage Hadebe has reached 50 appearances for his country while playing for FC Cincinnati in Major League Soccer. The milestone continues a national team journey that began with his debut against Morocco more than a decade ago, when he was emerging from Bantu Rovers, where he broke into senior football at age 17.

The image, which attracted over 20,000 views, divided commenters between those defending the scene as merely a temporary alternate route and critics who disputed that characterization based on their own recent travel experiences along the highway.
This marks the second time within months that viral imagery has challenged official accounts of the Bulawayo-Victoria Falls Highway's condition. Earlier, authorities denied that another widely circulated photograph showing people...
