Khune’s tweet has reignited the debate on social media as to who is the best goalkeeper in the PSL – a debate that started when Mamelodi Sundowns keeper Denis Onyango was named as the best goalkeeper in Africa during the recent Caf Awards.
Following Caf’s announcement, Khune took to his social media pages to post an image of himself alongside his accomplishments from the 2017/18 PSL season.
His post caused a major stir among rival fans and it started a debate as to who was the best goalkeeper between Khune and Onyango.
