His daughter Sne Modise, played by The Estate actress Jo-anne Reyneke was also heartbroken as she adores her father.
Will his brother, Philemon Modise played by Tumisho Masha take over Sne's job if his brother dies?
Sne who is a symbol of resilience and ambition in a male-dominated soccer empire is the current general manager of the club.

While her uncle feels the world has yet to acknowledge his true worth and his narrative is one of greed, and sibling rivalry.

First week of #ChampionsMzansi done and dusted and so far I like the pace of the storyline. You can tell a lot is about to unfold since Washington discovered that his cancer is back.
