KHUNE DERAILING AMAKHOSI LEGACY?

It’s now 10 consecutive Chiefs appearances for Itumeleng Khune without a clean sheet. After his 28th Soweto Derby appearance ended in a 1-0 defeat, Khune has lost nine of the last 10 matches he’s started for the Glamour Boys. The one win in that sequence was a recent 3-2 success against hapless Cape Town Spurs. It was also his first Soweto Derby start since 2018 and now the longest sequence without a clean sheet in his entire career.

KAIZER CHIEFS TO DISCIPLINE KHUNE

According to an exclusive recent FarPost report, “Khune arrived for training showing signs of someone under the influence of alcohol. He was ordered to undergo tests. The results of the tests reportedly confirmed that Khune was indeed under the influence of alcohol. He was immediately sent home.”

The matter is being taken seriously by the club, with the 36-year-old PSL veteran in line for suspension and other sanctions that could include him being stripped of the captaincy.
