The Siya crew has been led to believe that Sekhukhune United are not closed on the idea of having a Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder beyond the end of this season.
Sipho Mbule joined Sekhukhune from Sundowns on a season-long loan deal and while there is not option to buy in the contract, the idea of him staying at the club beyond the end of this campaign has not been ruled out.

Indications are that Mbule is enjoying his game at the club and would also not have a problem staying at the club if things do not work out at Sundowns, who are going to make a decision on his future at the end of the campaign.
Sundowns have loads of competition in midfield and, depending on what they do in the market in the coming months, they might not have space for the former SuperSport United player in their team.
In a short space of time, Mbule has become one of the key players in the Sekhukhune midfield and was even included in the Bafana Bafana preliminary squad recently but was not in the final squad.
The 26-year-old Mbule has made five appearances in all competitions for the club, contributing to the team with one goal thus far. It's believed Sekhukhune head coach is a big admirer of Mbule and would not hesitate to keep the player if the opportunity to do presented itself.

Seema, however, will have to wait until the end of the campaign to see whether an opportunity to keep Mbule is on the table or not.
