Ex-Kaizer Chiefs star Letsholonyane 'tired' of lockdown but ‘player safety should come first’

Highlands Park midfielder Reneilwe Letsholonyane has admitted that the coronavirus-induced lockdown is affecting them tremendously but it is necessary because the safety of the players should be prioritised.

Like many other Premier Soccer League (PSL) players, the ex-Kaizer Chiefs star is training alone at home.

Since joining Highlands Park from SuperSport United last September, the midfielder made nine league appearances before the coronavirus outbreak forced a halt to football games in South Africa.
