Akpeyi sheds light on Khune rivalry at Kaizer Chiefs

Kaizer Chiefs goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi insists that there is no rivalry between him and Itumeleng Khune.

The Nigeria international has been enjoying regular game time as Amakhosi's first-choice goalkeeper in the absence of club captain Khune.

Khune recently resumed full training with his teammates but his absence has had no impact on the team thanks to Akpeyi's great form between the sticks.

“On Khune‚ I don’t think we are having any fight on who is going to be the No 1 or not,” Akpeyi told the media.
