Memorial service of Kaizer Chiefs defender Luke Fleurs held at the FNB Stadium.

The football fraternity has made a plea to government to strengthen its efforts for a safer South Africa. This came out at the memorial service of Kaizer Chiefs defender Luke Fleurs at the FNB Stadium.The 24-year-old joined Chiefs in October last year from SuperSport United. A young talent who was nurtured at Ubuntu Academy before turning professional. He went on to be an impactful player at SuperSport United turning out 70 times for the Tshwane side.

Fleurs’ talent didn’t go unnoticed attracting interest from Chiefs, making the move to Amakhosi last October. An injury ruled him out for some time and was close to making his appearance at the club. Despite the six months he spent at the club, he left an indelible mark. Fleurs’ manager Glyn Binkin says the young Kaizer Chiefs defender had a promising career that was snatched from him because of crime.

“In October 2023, Luke transferred to Kaizer Chiefs, which was a fulfilment of one of his childhood dreams from his days of playing in the black and gold colour as a five -year -old on the streets of Mitchells Plain. Unfortunately, Luke did not get the chance to play in a competitive game for the Amakhosi. His life and career were tragically cut short when he passed away as a victim of crime just over a week ago. Luke’s sudden death was a shock to everyone who knew him and loved him.
