The Kaizer Chiefs star was also seen alongside Orlando Pirates striker Tshegofatso Mabasa.
More than a week later, the partnership has now been confirmed, with eyewear brand Rudy Project South Africa announcing it on their social media platforms on Tuesday.
The brand wrote: "We’ve officially added soccer star power to the Rudy Project squad!
"Say hello to our newest ambassadors Thabo Cele and Tshegofatso Mabasa.
"Soccer legends on the field, style icons off it.
"We linked up for an epic evening shoot, let’s just say the Rudy's weren’t the only ones stealing the spotlight.
"Welcome to the team, gents."
One hopes this is just the beginning of many more endorsement deals for Cele, who has been a model professional since joining Amakhosi earlier this year following a lengthy spell abroad.
