The star also has a giant tattoo on his right hand, which resembles clouds.

Ink lovers have since praised Mduduzi Tshabalala’s new tattoo, while others have urged him to focus on his career and keep everything under wraps to avoid making headlines.

Last year, Mamelodi Sundowns star Thembinkosi Lorch set social media abuzz after he showed off his monster lion tattoo. An ink lover, Thembinkosi Lorch added the famous lion tattoo on his back.

The tattoo saw him joining a host of footballers who have had it over the years, including Memphis Depay.

CAREER

Little is known about Mduduzi Shabalala’s youth career. However, the rumour mill has it that he once played for Lenasia Football Academy before joining Kaizer Chiefs’ Youth Academy.

In 2022, he was promoted to the senior squad. However, it is shocking to many that several European clubs, including Villarreal CF, once showed interest in the star before his shot to fame.

After impressing during trials, the star was also linked to Belgian outfit KVC Westerlo. However, reports have shown that the deal failed to materialise due to transfer clause-related matters.
