The story

After a standout season with Burnley FC, Bafana Bafana striker Lyle Foster expressed heartfelt gratitude to his club and loved ones in an emotional Instagram post featuring a 20-image gallery. 

Burnley secured an immediate return to the English Premier League, finishing second in the EFL Championship with 100 points, level with champions Leeds United. 

Foster played a key role in the campaign, contributing seven goals in 28 league appearances, and is cherishing his second promotion to the top flight with the Clarets.

The 24-year-old's photo dump featured snaps from Burnley's promotion trophy parade, himself with his family, friends and his dog. 

"Grateful to be part of this amazing group, staff and whole team included. I couldn't have asked for a better season with this group, injuries here and there, but that's what makes us stronger. Stronger next season," wrote Foster, adding:

"Thank God for all my beautiful family, girlfriend, friends and everyone who supported and has been there since day 1. Still a lot to achieve, thank God," said the former Orlando Pirates striker, expressing gratitude to his supporters and family. 

In honour of Foster making his way back to the Premier League with Burnley, here's a look back at his first-ever goal in England's top flight:
