Itumeleng Khune Says His Wife’s Cooking Made Him Gain Weight! The Amakhosi goalkeeper has recently retained his #1 spot.

Itumeleng Khune has been on a one-year weight loss journey which has seen him return to the first team. The goalkeeper claims that his wife’s cooking made him gain weight.

Itu has been restored into the team as the Kaizer Chiefs number one. Coach Arthur Zwane has shown a lot of faith in the club captain.

His return demonstrated a visibly fitter Khune.

“I actually thought about that (the weight issue) on my way here this morning,” Khune told the media.

“I think that just after getting married, my wife was spoiling me at home. I would sometimes eat six meals in one day… 

“I mean every two minutes she would ask if I was fine or if I needed something (to eat). And without realising it, I was agreeing to everything she was offering. 

“I didn’t realise that I was gaining weight, but a lot of people could see that.

“I would judge myself when I got on the field, I could perform the same way I had been performing.

“But as the club has the structures to (monitor weight), when we do our weights, I was told that mine fluctuates… 

“But now I can safely say that the program has worked, and I am back to my normal self, and I can even feel the fit of the kit is loose and tight as it used to be. I feel like I am 12 years old again. 

“I feel great, and I feel I can still compete. I want to compete here (at Chiefs) and get back to the Bafana setup again.” He spoke.
