At just 15-years-old Neo Bohloko is already being tipped for stardom at Kaizer Chiefs, where he enjoyed a spectacular season for the club's DStv Diski team.

Bohloko's exploits for the Amakhosi reserves saw him crowned the Player of the Season and the Top Goal Scorer at the club's awards ceremony, held at their Naturena base this week.

The teenager managed to find the back of the net on 14 occasions and finished as the DDC's third-highest goal scorer behind Thabang Mahlangu of SuperSport United on 17 goals and Jody Ahshene of Cape Town City on 16 goals.

A bright future has been predicted for the forward, who continues to break records for Amakhosi.

"It was expected. Having said that, he has set records at only 15 years of age, which is remarkable. I am delighted for him and I think it is a good choice by the people who voted for him. One day we will see big things coming from him," his coach Vela Khumalo told the club's official website.

There is hope that Bohloko follows in the footsteps of Mduduzi Shabalala, Wandile Duba and Mfundo Vilakazi in being promoted to the Glamour Boys' first team in the near future.

"Once again, I'm very happy to have two of our players moving up," Khumalo beamed, "That makes six players in three years, which indicates that we are doing something right in the development academy. We are highly motivated to produce even more next season," Khumalo continued.
