Khune’s ex on Soccer Zone rumours: ‘They’re just selling papers’
The rumour mill isn't to be believed, Sbahle Mpisane insists, after a Sunday tabloid fingered her as the next co-presenter on Soccer Zone.

Sunday World reported that Sbahle would be joining Thomas Mlambo on the SABC sports show, replacing the current co-host.
The report quoted a senior producer at the SABC, who said it was a done deal and that Sbahle’s wealthy parents were friends with an SABC executive, paving the way for her to get her big break in TV despite having no experience in sports presenting.
Sbahle has, however, come out on Twitter, slamming the reports as false. She tweeted:

The reaction to the news that Sbahle could be joining the show was not taken well by many, who said she was just eye candy to draw viewers.

Soccerzone had @MinnieDlamini and now @sbahle_mpisane? Is Khune the HR consultant?

One Twitter user pointed out that if Sbahle were to indeed to present the show, she wouldn’t technically be replacing Minnie.
If its true that Sbahle Mpisane is going to be on soccerzone then shes replacing vylan Kirtley not Minnie she left a longtime Ago😕😕
