Over the years, Khune has been a stalwart for Chiefs, being their number one goalkeeper for well over a decade. In recent years, however, the 36-year-old has been plagued by injuries and lack of form, which have seen him dropped. With the club failing to find a regular goalkeeper to take over, they have often called on him repeatedly.

He recently returned with a Man of the Match performance for the Carling All Stars XI. The country got to see yet another glimpse of what he is still capable of in front of the sticks.

Sekhukhune to tempt Khune away from Chiefs?
“With his current situation at the club even he himself is not sure whether his contract will be renewed or not at the end of the season. So he is a person before being a player and he has to look after his future and that’s why he will consider the offer from Sekhukhune United. It’s not just a football player offer. It’s like offering him a retirement package saying ‘come play for us’ for three seasons, retire and work for us. That’s what they wanted to do with Morgan Gould and Willard Katsande.” Said the source to publication.
