The opening of the first window of the 2025/26 season has come with the traditional busy transfer activity Betway Premiership clubs with Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs taking the lead.

Pirates and Chiefs have already announced several new arrivals ahead of the new season due to start in August.

Unfortunately, there is a black mark on TS Galaxy who have three FIFA imposed registration bans plus a pending case. 

The Tim Sukazi owned club has two three-window transfer bans, which came into effect in December 2024, plus another sanction (effected in April 2025) hanging on their heads to run until further notice.

These bans relate to contractual dispute cases taken by former players against the club to FIFA.

This means TS Galaxy will not be able to make any signings until they are able to make all due payments relating to these cases. 

As it stands, they are the only club in the Betway Premiership not able to register players transferred from other clubs. 

This will come as a disadvantage for TS Galaxy who finished fifth last season and will be in action in the MTN8 which starts on August 1. 

The Betway Premiership then starts on August 8. 

The current window which opened on July 1 will ultimately close on September 22.

TS Galaxy have another pending case involving Jegbay Morris Konneh who won his case at FIFA’s DC and must now be paid USD118 800 (approx. R2,1 million). 

The club immediately asked for the grounds of the decision which sets aside the 45-day notification to pay, which if not honoured then would lead to another registration ban.
