Former Bafana Bafana goalkeeper Veli Mothwa has been announced as goalkeeper coach for ABC Motsepe League outfit Baroka FC for the remainder of the 2026/27 campaign.

Mothwa, 35, was last in a playing capacity at the University of Pretoria for just one season before resurfacing at Bakgaga Ga Mphahlele a few months ago.

The former AmaZulu and Chippa United shotstopper makes a return to the Limpopo-based outfit where his professional career took off back in 2013 before his departure to join the Chilli Boys.

On Tuesday, the club announced Mothwa among three new recruitments at the club.

Mothwa last featured for the national team when his infamous howler caught headlines in the 2-2 draw against Uganda in the 2025 AFCON Qualifiers.
