Quotes you transition from the comfort of being a professional footballer to having to go fend for yourself Now you have this name, all of these medals, but they do nothing for you. Now you’re going to have to live, you have children and a family, you have to support them, and things will never be the same This is what gets our footballers, and the legends have preached this for years. Make a plan while you're still playing to sustain your life because once you retire, life is not going to be the same as what it was during your playing days Lebese Gets Candid About Life After Football, April 24,2025, Soccer Laduma by Lusanda Luthuli I want to represent my country at the highest level and then go on to play overseas . I do not want to play for any club in South Africa because when you are at Chiefs, you have reached your ceiling as a player as far as Club football goes in South Africa. My burning ambition really is to represent my country. It all starts here at Chiefs though. I have to work hard and start playing regularly to achieve my dream. It is just a bit of advice from my side that if you could protect the ball more and improve your crosses you would be an incredible player. Please also be disciplined. Thank you for the advice Talent alone is not enough for a player to reach his full potential in football and discipline becomes very important. I have been lucky to be surrounded by players like Thabo Mooki, who always told me to behave. I have also noticed that I need to work more on protecting the ball and improving my crosses. I am doing extra sessions to make sure that I improve on this. I must say that Shabba is also very supportive and encourages me all the time. He says that I have what it takes to take over from him if it happens that he goes overseas…and I agree with him! I have realised that it is important for me to back my talent with education and I would like to work in the sports field. He has touched so many lives and he remains humble. He does not think of himself alone and you have to look at what he has done in grooming legends in this Club. He is one of a kind and is there with the likes of Tata uMandela!
