Sekhukhune United will face off against Orlando Pirates with MacDonald Makhubedu as interim head coach at Orlando Stadium this evening.
Following their disappointing Carling Knockout exit at the hands of TS Galaxy on penalties, Truter was informed to leave camp.
While settlement negotiations remain ongoing for his official exit, his assistant and former head coach Babina Noko will assume the role as his replacement.
This comes off the back of the sacking of assistant coach Morgan Gould and goalkeeper Johan Abselon – with the latter seeing his contract terminated.
Innocent Mayoyo has since been called up from the DStv Diski Challenge squad to replace Abselon, while Gould may be retained in a new capacity within the coming weeks.
iDiski Times understands the hierarchy has been left bewildered by the subdued displays in recent weeks after major investment in playing personnel, with the lack of commitment from certain players coming into question.
Truter confirmed to this website that he was no longer with the team, and with technical staff changed prompt, the club are even considering a squad shake-up in January, should results and performances not improve within the coming weeks.
Sekhukhune, who are campaigning in the CAF Confederation Cup group stages take on and out of sorts Pirates side in Soweto this evening at 19h30.
