Ex-Kaizer Chiefs captain Mashamaite ‘not surprised Letsholonyane has played for all these years’

A cryptic message earlier this week hinted at the Bafana Bafana World Cup star retiring

Former Kaizer Chiefs defender Tefu Mashamaite has credited Reneilwe Letsholonyane’s clean lifestyle as the reason why his former teammate was able to have a long career as a player.

Letsholonyane hinted at hanging up his boots on Thursday at the age of 39, after a professional career spanning 15 years.

He is currently clubless after leaving TS Galaxy and Mashamaite paid tribute to his former teammate, having been in the same squad at both Chiefs and SuperSport United.
