The South African Football Journalists’ Association (SAFJA) confirmed that the Mamelodi Sundowns centre-forward will be handed the keys to a Volkswagen Golf 1.4 TSI Life Plus.
This is no ordinary car; it enjoys a strong reputation among car enthusiasts.
Regarded as a performance vehicle, this model is often used by law enforcement officials, highlighting its power and efficiency on the road.
It’s also the kind of car that turns heads, as it’s considered one of the top sports cars available in the South African market.
In recent months, notable figures such as Kaizer Chiefs star Aiden McCarthy and Reeve Frosler have been seen driving this model.
Reacting to the award while on Bafana Bafana duty ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, Rayners told SAFJA: "This was so unexpected! I just want to thank the journalists for recognising me - winning this award means a lot to me."
