Pirates reached the Champions League Final two years ago where they went down 3-1 to Egyptian giants Al-Ahly.
The Sea Robbers - Champions Cup victors in 1995 - have another shot at glory as they gear up for next month's Confederation Cup decider with Tunisian side Etoile du Sahel.
"The best year was undoubtedly in 2013 because it was my first time reaching the Final in a CAF competition," Jele tells snl24.com/kickoff when asked about his best year of continental football.
"We reached the Final and I was the captain of the team and hopefully this year we can go one better and win it."
The 28-year-old has called for The Ghost's continued support in this venture.
"All I want to say is thankyou very much for support they gave us. It’s very important for us to get that support. We need to be one unit."
