Cape Town – Teko Modise was crowned Gauteng Sports Personality of the year and says that it is a special one because the public has had a say in it.
“I would really like to thank all the people that voted for me from the bottom of my heart, the Sundowns technical team and my teammates. This award really inspires me to work even harder because at least I know that there are people who take note when you do good,” says the midfielder on Sundowns official website.
Modise played a pivotal role in helping Mamelodi Sundowns win the 2013/14 Absa Premiership title.
The player was relieved to win his first PSL trophy after a nervy end to the campaign but “The General” as he is known, scored 6 goals in his 31 appearances for the Brazilians to help edge it from Kaizer Chiefs.
Mamelodi Sundowns will be in action on July 19 when they take on Moroka Swallows in the Gauteng Challenge.
