Mamelodi Sundowns legend Jethro 'Lovers' Mohlala has urged current crop of local football stars to 'make hay while the sun shines'.

The 39 year-old former left-full-back took to his social media site on Sunday to share his struggle after football.

"Don't be like most of us. While we were playing soccer we did not study. Playing soccer will not guarantee you a job after you retire most soccer players are from poorer background," he said.
