The veteran goalkeeper left the club having acquired a legendary status for his loyal service and the professional way he always carried himself on and off the field.

While it had been thought that the 38-year-old might consider calling time to his career, indications are that he is assessing options about a potential next move for the upcoming season.

"Siya (Mpontshane) is still feeling strong and will be ready for the next challenge, that's for sure. He is a professional who looks after himself very well and there is no doubt that he can still go on for another few seasons," said the source.

"Yes, a career in goalkeeper training is something that has been bandied about for him for the future, but for now he is open to opportunities as a player," concluded the source.
