‘Motsepe needs to do better’: Angry Sundowns fans slam club facilities (video)

Mamelodi Sundowns have dominated South African football for over a decade. They shine brightly across the African continent too. Under billionaire owner Patrice Motsepe, the club has achieved major success.

With Motsepe at the helm, Sundowns have lifted multiple league titles and a CAF Champions League trophy. The team plays beautiful football and attracts top talent. Their winning culture has earned them a huge fan base.

Supporters expect excellence not only on the field but off it too. However, a recent video on TikTok has left many fans shocked and disappointed.

Fans call out Motsepe over Sundowns’ poor facilities

Despite Patrice Motsepe’s wealth and success, fans are now questioning the club’s training conditions. Midfielder Bathusi Aubaas posted a TikTok video showing off his “7 pockets Jean From SHEIN.” Fans, however, noticed more than his jeans. In the background, they saw a dusty training ground with no proper pavement. The lack of investment shocked supporters.

Sundowns have dominated African football, but fans believe the facilities don’t reflect that status. They quickly called out Motsepe on social media. Many asked how such a rich club could train under poor conditions. Some even said the environment looked “like an amateur club ground.”

Motsepe is known for his philanthropy and football ambition. Still, fans now want him to improve the club’s infrastructure. They say it’s unacceptable for players to use grounds without proper paving or maintenance. Sundowns’ success, they argue, deserves matching standards.

Anger continues to rise online. Supporters feel ignored and demand immediate action. For a team with continental trophies, the training setup must inspire pride. Motsepe’s silence so far has only added fuel to the fire. Fans want change — and they want it now.
