Itumeleng Khune and Brandon Petersen of Kaizer Chiefs during the Nedbank Cup last 32 match at Harry Gwala Stadium on February 10 2023 in Pietermaritzburg.Brandon Peterson may have not yet managed to become a regular goalkeeper at Kaizer Chiefs, but he says fighting for the jersey alongside Itumeleng Khune has kept him motivated.
“Khune has achieved a lot with the club and the national team. He’s good person to look up to as a football figure. For us as goalkeepers we’re brothers and that helps us to push each other. “ I’ve never secured the number one spot. I have to train and prove myself every day at training and I have to earn my number one spot. I will never tell you I’m number one goalkeeper. At the end of the day I don’t pick the team.
“In football I think pressure is normal. If you don’t like pressure you shouldn’t be a footballer. For me it’s no longer that bad,” he said.
