Soccer legend Radebe's son takes different path.
Ofentse “Primo” Baloyi, the son of soccer legend Lucas"Rhoo" Radebe, is fast becoming one of SA’s top content creators thanks to his funny social media skits.
Growing up, Baloyi didn't have a close relationship with his father and for the most part because Radebe was pursuing an international soccer career. As a teen, he'd often see his father from time to time but it was only in his 20s that he and Radebe built a stronger bond. "I always aimed to impress my dad with my soccer skills but to this day he hasn't really said I am as good as him."
"Right after I retired four years ago when I was 25, my dad suggested that I take up coaching. I decided to coach a young squad of kids. I did that right up until last year before my content creation took full force,” he said.Image:“For many that don’t know, my dad and I are quite similar. We are both funny, talk a lot and are very driven. We sometimes bond over these videos.
