The story
Durban-born talent, Thabo Cele has played his entire professional in Europe since graduating from the KZN Football Academy.
The 27-year-old, who represented South Africa at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, has played in Portugal, Poland and currently finds himself at top flight Russian outfit, Fakel Voronezh.
Having been in Europe since 2016, it's safe to say that Cele has spent enough time in Europe to learn the languages of whatever country he's living in.
In a short clip shared on social media by Prince Sobayeni, a digital scout who tracks and reports on South African footballers abroad, showed Cele switching between three languages.
It appears as if Cele was on a team bus after a match, with KwaMashu raised midfielder being heard speaking in Portuguese, Russian and his home language, isiZulu.
