According to FARPost, Jele explained that he still has a lot to offer.

He said: “At this point and time, I’m still training on my own.

“If any team is willing to acquire my services, I’m still available. But about retiring, I will let you know when the time is right.”

Happy Jele added: “I think so far is good. I’m trying to adjust on this outside football.

“It’s also teaching me how to deal with life when I decide to hang up my boots. So, it’s giving me channels to whatever I want to do.”
