SuperSport United's Thabo September Has Decided To Retire
Thabo September
SuperSport United's club captain, Thabo September, has officially decided to call it a day and hang up his boots after nearly a decade at the club. September - I Was Raised By A Community The 33-year-old defender joined Matsatsantsa back in 2006 after impressing during his time with Bush Bucks, and has gone on to lift practically every trophy in South Africa, playing under six different head coaches. It was Pitso Mosimane that first brought September to Tshwane nearly 10 years ago, and since then he has played under Gavin Hunt, Cavin Johnson, Kaitano Tembo, Gordon Igesund and Stuart Baxter, but now he has decided to step away from the game. Speaking to the Siya crew about his decision, September said that – due to a persistent knee injury – the time had come for him to retire and pursue the next challenge in his life. September told the crew, "It's been a great journey for me. I've made lifetime friendships with players, coaches, supporters and bosses, and won almost every trophy. God blessed me and the game will always be part of me." During his time with SuperSport, September got his hands on three league titles, two Nedbank Cups and a Telkom Knockout trophy, with the MTN8 being the only domestic trophy that eluded him. Now, at 33, he's moving on to something new.
