Thabo Cele is the cover star on the soccer side as we zoom in on his progress since joining Kaizer Chiefs midway through last season. We get word from some of those who have worn the famous Gold and Black jersey and they speak with honesty on why he could be the man the team’s game is built around in 2025/26.
We also go one-on-one with Mamelodi Sundowns defender Grant Kekana, who opens up on his battle with depression earlier on in his career, the high standard that define the Tshwane giants, lessons learnt from the FIFA World Cup, and more.
Meanwhile, Doctor Khumalo shares his expectations for this season with the goal for all 15 Betway Premiership teams being to dethrone Masandawana, while he reveals why Amakhosi fans can be the team’s worst enemy.
On a lighter note, KICK OFF also tracked down Njabulo Manqana, the star of the 2009 MTN8 final, as he gives us the rundown of the those who made it to the line-up as well as the substitutes that fateful evening against Ajax Cape Town at Orlando Stadium.
