Ex-Sundowns captain Kekana announces retirement from football

Former Mamelodi Sundowns and Bafana Bafana midfielder Hlompho Kekana has announced his retirement from football.

Kekana has been without a club since leaving Sundowns towards the end of last season.

The 37-year-old is arguably the most successful Sundowns captain, having led them to CAF Champions League in 2016 as well as the CAF Super Cup in 2017 under the guidance of former coach Pitso Mosimane.

In a statement published on his social media accounts, Kekana revealed that he will now concentrate on his new job as an SABC analyst.
