The story

In a vlog-style video shared by the Buccaneers, Lebitso gave supporters a glimpse into his daily routine as a footballer for the one of the biggest clubs on the African continent.

The former Chippa United star is yet to feature competitively for the Soweto giants this season suffering a knee injury during July's pre-season friendly against Al Sadd in Spain.

Lebitso opened up about his struggles with injury this in the video, after also suffering broken collarbone during their 4-0 win over Royal AM back in April.

"For me, I'm really happy. I've just come back into the team now, it's been quite a difficult few months for me because of my injury. It was difficult to wake up in the morning," reflected Lebitso.

"It was difficult because everyday, it was pain. But I'm happy, today I can drive to work. I can make sure that I get to the team and train.

"I've just started again with the team recently and every time I wake up in the morning, there's motivation, there's a determination to go to work. So, it means a lot," added Lebitso, who's on the comeback trail and will offer cover at both right-back and right wing.

Watch below, with Lebitso lauding the support he's received from the club and being inspired by his teammates on the pitch:
