Kaizer Chiefs captain Itumeleng Khune says winning the Double in his first season as captain will be a memory to cherish for the rest of his life.

Khune is so close to that achievement he can even smell it with Chiefs coming up against SuperSport United on Saturday in the Nedbank Cup Final in a game which if they win they will have completed their first Double since 2005 when AmaKhosi won both the League and Coca-Cola Cup.

Though Khune took over as captain from Jimmy Tau in October, 2011 this has been his first full season playing with the armband and will emulate the retired Patrick Mabedi the last man to lead Chiefs to a Double.

“To achieve a Double in my first full season as captain will be a memory that I will cherish for the rest of my life,” says Khune.

“But again it is not all about me but the club’s success and if we win the Double it is for the club and not Itumeleng as a captain but for everyone who has worked hard and contributed to the club’s success,” he says.

Khune actually believes Chiefs they have a squad that deserves the Double this season.

“It is possible (to win the Double) because we have a great squad and a team that is humble and hard working so I believe we stand a good chance of winning the Double this season,” says Khune, who has been the best player in the PSL this season.
