It is tragic to lose such great talent

I would like to send my deepest condolences to Gift Leremi's family and Mamelodi Sundowns.

I would like to send my deepest condolences to Gift Leremi's family and Mamelodi Sundowns.

I'm a Pirates supporter and a Leremi fan.

When he left Pirates to join Sundowns, I was very disappointed because I knew how talented he was. But I realised that it was good for his career.

I was happy to see him doing well for Sundowns and I was looking forward to seeing him play for Bafana Bafana.

I cannot describe the feeling of losing such great talent. With the 2010 World Cup looming I was certain Leremi was going to be part of that Bafana team.

All I can say is that God gave us this Gift, and he has now taken him away. To his family: akwehlanga lungehlanga.

May his soul rest in peace.
