Retired Orlando pirates goalkeeper Brilliant Khuzwayo is showing fans that being on lockdown is no reason for him to stop working out.

A recurring ankle injury forced Khuzwayo into early retirement in July last year after a medical report by specialists revealed he would no longer be able to play at an elite level, Orlando Pirates announced at the time.

“I choose a healthy lifestyle upon this lockdown,” he captioned one of two videos of him sweating it out from his home this week.

The videos sparked a glimmer of hope, with one fan asking if he would be back on the field any time soon, to which the former shot-stopper responded, “I wish it was that simple.”

Brilliant's fans are joining him in keeping active during the lockdown.
