Sheppard’s contract expired last month, but the club wants him to mentor the young players in the academy.
The former Mamelodi Sundowns man helped the Clever Boys win their first Absa Premiership title at the end of the 2016/2017 season along with the MTN 8 final.
“He [Sheppard] is not staying with us as a player,” Jose Ferreira, the Wits CEO tells KickOff.com
“Remember he is already involved with the academy, and we are definitely hoping that he stays with the academy.”
