Former Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Charles Motlohi has entertained football supporters after sharing a hilarious childhood experience that highlighted his deep passion for football and how it sometimes resulted in disagreements with members of his household.

Motlohi opened up about the memorable incident during his appearance on KickOff's 'My First' feature, which gives football personalities an opportunity to reflect on their childhoods, personal experiences and important moments that shaped their journeys in the game.

During the conversation, the former midfielder recalled how much he enjoyed watching football as a young boy. His love for the sport was so strong that even choosing what to watch on television could become a source of tension at home.

One particular incident involved a disagreement over the television remote control after someone in the household refused to allow him to choose what was being shown. Looking back at the experience, Motlohi recalled the situation with humour, saying: “He didn’t allow me to touch the TV remote.”

Although he did not reveal further details about the person involved or how the disagreement eventually ended, his brief response was enough to give supporters a glimpse into the kind of childhood he experienced.

For many professional footballers, their journeys begin with a strong fascination with the game during their early years. Watching matches on television, following their favourite teams and admiring established players often help develop the ambition to become professional footballers.

Motlohi's story reflects how deeply football had become part of his life even before he made his mark in professional football.

His association with Mamelodi Sundowns makes the revelation particularly interesting for supporters who want to understand more about the former midfielder's personality and upbringing beyond his football career.

Through its 'My First' feature, KickOff continues to provide footballers with a platform to share personal memories and entertaining stories, allowing fans to connect with their favourite football personalities on a more personal level.
