Bakang Sdoli Moeng
A few years ago, Bakang ‘Sdoli’ Moeng, 31, was a menace to Premier League defenders alongside Mogakolodi ‘Tsotso’ Ngele during their days at Uniao Flamengo Santos.
This week the former football marksman revealed to Voice Entertainment how his passion for music has overshadowed his love for football.
“I started music as a very young boy. That was before I even played football. I used to hang out with the likes of Mingo, Figos, and Vee Mampeezy. However, I became a ball boy for Flamengo Desportos and we got promoted to the first team with the likes of Tsotso and that was when I decided to focus on football as I felt that I could go far.”
From talking soccer to managing players
Behind the success of many footballers, there is an agent, pulling strings for players to secure the best deals.
29- year -old Bakang Moipone is the youngest football player agent in Botswana. He started when he was 26 years of age and so far he has managed to eliminate issues of players registering with two clubs at the same time and teams failing to pay such players.
It all started as a hobby for Moipone who then went on to register his company, Extreme Sports, which currently manages 25 players’ and two coaches’ contracts.
Four years later, Moipone is not only an intermediary for local players but also for two players from Kenya, Musa Mahummad and Duncan Otieno who play for Lusaka Dynamos FC.
