Amakhosi’s longest-serving player and skipper, Itumeleng Khune, has finally rejoined the team following his banishment from his teammates to fulfill certain conditions required of him before he could be allowed back at the village.
Khune was suspended early in December to allow him to complete a corrective program designed for him to meet set expectations for a professional athlete. Upon completion of the program, a report from an independent body of professionals was received and shared with the technical team to demonstrate that he had done all that was required.
According to Kaizer Chiefs, Khune said that during his absence, he fully participated in the programs set out for him and believes they assisted with his personal growth and development as a professional athlete as well as an individual.
In January and February, Kaizer Chiefs also allowed Khune to participate on the panel of SABC Sports analysts during the recent Africa Cup of Nations. The experience gained from the exercise will hopefully benefit his life in the future.
“As Kaizer Chiefs, we welcome Itu back to the home he has known for over 25 years, and we remain committed to our core values of discipline, integrity, respect, and unity.”
