The former Kaizer Chiefs midfielder has been training with Highlands Park in a bid to return to the Absa Premiership after he parted ways with SuperSport United at the end of last season.

Reneilwe “Yeye” Letsholonyane, now 37, seems to have impressed Highlands’ head coach Owen Da Gama, who told members of the media – after his side beat AmaZulu 2-1 on Tuesday – that he would love to have an experienced campaigner like him at the Lions of the North.
“He is training with us but because of these breaks that we have been having, being away from the whole week and then we are back. He is looking very sharp… I don’t know what is going to happen,” said Da Gama.
“If it works out very well then management makes the decision on that, I can’t make a decision on that,” said Da Gama.
He continued: “I would be very happy (to have him). Just his influence and his ability to play. Imagine how he could make Peter Shalulile and all the other players play. I think he can definitely add a lot of value to us, we need a little bit of experience especially in the middle.”
