Itumeleng Khune finally found a gig that doesn't involve warming the bench or fighting retirement rumors. The Kaizer Chiefs legend teamed up with Ruimsig Football Academy to launch a training scheme called Distribution 101. He plans to teach kids between twelve and eighteen how to stop balls at Avianto Estate Private School. This project supposedly gives young talent a structured route into professional leagues.
The curriculum highlights technical skills and game intelligence alongside the mental toughness needed for elite competition. Khune apparently wants to mix his extensive background with fresh coaching tactics to groom future stars. It sounds like a solid plan to fix the local goalkeeping crisis while helping aspirants reach the top level.
This move adds to a growing list of side hustles since his playing days at Naturena faded out. The guy already dabbles in mining, holds shares in TopBet, and talks shop on SABC. He also reps the Nedbank Cup while keeping busy with Carling Knockout duties.
Despite all this business activity, Khune insists he hasn't officially hung up his gloves yet. He previously shot down claims that his career ended, arguing that only higher powers decide when he quits. But pivoting to youth development definitely looks like someone preparing for life after the final whistle.
