Bafana Bafana Legend Urges Itumeleng Khune to Retire, stating 'The System Doesn't Want You Anymore.' Emphasising that he has done it all.
. Kaizer Chiefs have confirmed that Khune’s current contract will be his last. Despite this, the 36-year-old expressed his desire to continue playing after a goalless draw with Polokwane City.Kaizer Chiefs are ready to offer Khune a position as a goalkeeping coach but are unwilling to renew his contract as a player. Kekana, speaking to SABC’s Soccer Zone, emphasised the importance of accepting reality.
Kekana himself retired at 37 after a decorated career, which included nine DStv Premiership titles—three with SuperSport United and six with Mamelodi Sundowns. Renowned for his long-range goals, his memorable strike from inside his half against Cameroon in a 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier earned a Fifa Puskas Award nomination.Johnson, currently leading Kaizer Chiefs, faces severe criticism as his short tenure shows little improvement.
Comparatively, Johnson’s performance is dismal. With a winning rate of 29 %, which could improve slightly to 32 % if Chiefs win against Cape Town Spurs. Johnson fares only better than Gavin Hunt, who had a 27.27% win rate. Despite his efforts, Johnson’s record in the Nedbank Cup and league positions highlight his struggles.
Johnson’s end-of-season stats are concerning. Winning just one of his last nine games, he faces a must-win scenario against Cape Town Spurs to match Hunt’s exit record of two wins in ten. Other former Chiefs coaches, such as Steve Komphela and Arthur Zwane, exited with better track records, leaving Johnson with a potentially damaging legacy., Johnson battles to salvage his reputation.
