The 36 year old Zimbabwean goalkeeper Tapuwa Kapini has dropped a bombshell as he rubbished retirement news.
The former Highlanders veteran goalkeeper says he still has a lot to offer and is not yet considering hanging his gloves any time soon.
Kapini is currently playing for Highlands Park in South Africa, whose performance is still impressive between the sticks at the age of 36 which pushes him to desire to go on.
“I still have the passion and fire in me that I think I have two or more seasons to play. If (Essam) El Hadary played up to the age of 47, who am I to retire at 36? I can’t do that,” said Kapini.
Kapini once indicated possibility of returning to the Black and White, Bosso if Highlands Park be sold as per reports emerging.
“If the worst comes to the worst and I can’t find a club in South Africa; if things get better in Zimbabwe, everyone knows my blood is black and white (Highlanders)”, said the veteran.
He went on to say “I had some offers with other clubs in Zimbabwe, which I cannot divulge for now but if Highlanders are willing to take me, I will come and play my last season at Bosso like the legendary Joel Luphahla did, before I hang my boots. I need to play for my beloved club.”
