Newly-promoted Betway Premiership outfit Magesi FC have confirmed the signing of 12 new players, including former Kaizer Chiefs forward Kgaogelo Sekgota .
Sekgota joined Magesi as a free agent after parting ways with Stellenbosch FC last season. Another prominent signing confirmed by Magesi was 29-year-old former Mamelodi Sundowns player Gift Motupa .
The Limpopo-based side gained automatic promotion to the first tier of South African football after winning the Motsepe Foundation Championship last season.
After Dikwena tsa Meetse's promotion to the premiership last season, head coach Clinton Larsen was quick to point out that for the side to thrive in the top flight the addition of experience and quality was needed.
Battles in the top flightFor years in the Premiership , newly-promoted teams often find themselves battling to avoid relegation towards the end of the season, with the most recent case being that of Cape Town Spurs who were relegated from the Premiership after just one season.
