Steve Lekoelea, a former right winger for the Orlando Pirates who was famous for his free-kick expertise, has avoided the limelight ever since he departed from football. He recently made an appearance on social media with a snapshot.

On Monday, the photo appeared on Facebook. It depicts Lekoelea, who went by the moniker "Chippa" while playing, donning the jersey of the Sebokeng Masters League team Hlanganani Masters. During his time with the Pirates, he was a fan favourite, and this snapshot gives fans a rare glimpse into his current lifestyle.

Lekoelea was born in Sebokeng and is 47 years old. Along with him in the photo is the legendary left winger Molefi Nale, who played for Monaco and is famous for his talent with the ball. Throughout their careers, the two collaborated on the field.

As a means for former players to remain active in the sport, masters leagues are widespread in South African communities. Rather than seeing it as a serious career path, most people play it for fun and to stay in touch with former teammates.

Some of Lekoelea's followers have taken to the post to wonder how he is settling into life after football and how he compares to other great right wingers from the PSL era. Those questions are left up to interpretation because the photo doesn't reveal anything about his personal situation. Every fan has their own opinion, but for many, seeing this photo has brought back fond memories of a much-loved player from the club.
