A large section of Bafana Bafana and Kaizer Chiefs goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune’s (above) Instagram followers were unimpresse­d with the star following a post where he posed next to a pool table, about to cue the white ball, with a few R100 notes visible on the edge of the table, captioning the picture: “Champ is here”. Some of his followers suggested that he is sending a bad message to the youth as he appears to be illegally gambling. Some followers did, however, poke fun at him, saying they would beat him hands down, while others cheered him on. Mtshali on radar of Pirates

Bloemfonte­in Celtic are said to be chasing Orlando Pirates youngster Lehlohonol­o Mtshali (above) according to a source at the club. The team have been keeping an eye on the Pirates academy graduate for quite a while now and they believe he could be a good prospect. “We have seen him play in the MDC and we think he could add a lot of value since we are focusing on building the team with a lot of youngsters for the future.” Letsoala’s promising goals

Baroka FC striker Victor Letsoalo (above) has promised to score at least 10 goals in the Absa Premiershi­p should he be given more game time next season.

He was one of the key players who helped the team retain their PSL status after winning the promotion/relegation play-offs with Letsoalo scoring three goals Keeper out to impress coach

SuperSport United goalkeeper Reyaad Petersen (above) told Phakaaathi he will do what it takes to impress new coach Eric Tinkler. “After working with Steve Komphela at Kaizer Chiefs, I had to individual­ly find out what the coach wanted from me as a goalkeeper. It will be the same with coach Tinkler, I will need to prove myself and make sure I know what his philosophy demands from my game.”
