Former Bafana Bafana first choice goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune is going to remain at Kaizer Chiefs for one more season after signing a new deal on Friday. 

Chiefs said in a statement that the upcoming season is going to be the 36-year-old Khune’s last as a player. 

“He has been handed a new contract which will see him play for Amakhosi for one final season, taking his professional career to two decades. While Khune will be involved in training and preparations for matches as a player, he will also use this year to broaden his technical acumen, as he transitions into a new coaching and ambassadorial role working with the marketing division at the club,” a Chiefs statement said.

Ventersdorp-born Khune has been a loyal servant at Chiefs since joining them 19 years ago.
