According to YouTube channel Diski Fans, Motaung Junior said the club is looking to strengthen the squad while at the start of the season they brought in seven stars.

Motaung Junior said:

"It would be foolish for us not to be doing anything in this window; we have to respect our players and give them the confidence to do the job on the field, but we are aware of the areas that need strengthening. We work tirelessly every day with the technical staff, management, and committee to make sure that we make the right decisions. We are in communication with many clubs and players, but it is disrespectful to speak about another club's players. We want to let the fans, stakeholders and sponsors know that we are doing everything we can to strengthen the team."

"In order to bring back the glory days to the team, you must remove Ranga, Du Preez and Sailor, then bring in two strikers and a midfielder. You got a very good coach but poor resources."

"I will believe his words once I see those players being unveiled at Naturena."
