Betway Premiership side Sekhukhune United are reportedly making a strong push to sign highly experienced SuperSport United striker, Bradley Grobler.
This potential move could see the prolific forward embark on a new chapter in his illustrious career.
At 37 years old, Grobler has been an integral part of SuperSport United for a remarkable 12 seasons. During his tenure at Matsatsantsa, he has amassed an impressive 293 appearances across all competitions, finding the back of the net 91 times.
His striking prowess was particularly evident during the 2020/21 DStv Premiership season, where he claimed the coveted Lesley Manyathela Golden Boot after netting an impressive 16 goals, as reported by iDiski Times.

Beyond individual accolades, the ‘Sniper’ has been a key figure in SuperSport’s trophy cabinet, contributing to four major titles: two Nedbank Cups, one MTN8 title, and one League Cup. His leadership and experience have been invaluable to the Pretoria-based club.
Following SuperSport United’s narrow escape from the relegation playoffs in the recently concluded season, it is understood that Grobler is seeking a fresh challenge for the upcoming 2025/26 season.
Babina Noko, now led by Eric Tinkler, view him as a valuable short-term solution to bolster their attacking options and inject much-needed experience into their squad.
However, Grobler’s recent seasons have been marked by persistent injury setbacks, which have significantly hampered his consistent game time. Despite his unwavering commitment to the club, these unfortunate occurrences have prevented him from maintaining a sustained run of form.
In the current Betway Premiership season, the veteran striker has only managed to make five appearances across all competitions, contributing two goals and one assist. His most recent recovery was from a knee injury, further limiting his impact on the pitch.
Grobler signed a one-year contract extension with SuperSport United ahead of the current season, which means his current deal is set to expire at the end of June 2025.
As of today, June 10, 2025, SuperSport United has yet to make a definitive decision on whether to offer him a new contract, leaving his future at the club uncertain.
This impending contract expiration presents a significant opportunity for Sekhukhune United. With Grobler set to become a free agent, Babina Noko could secure his signature without incurring a transfer fee, making him an attractive and cost-effective option for their ambitions.
Despite his advancing age, the former Bafana Bafana international has consistently expressed his desire to remain active on the pitch, underscoring his deep passion and unwavering commitment to the beautiful game.
His potential arrival at Sekhukhune United could add a vital blend of experience, goal-scoring ability, and a winning mentality to their squad as they prepare for the upcoming season.
