Former Bafana player and Kaizer Chiefs player Siphiwe Tshabalala may be 37-years-old but he has no plans of retiring anytime soon according to the player's agent.
Tshabalala has been without a club since he was released by Amazulu before the start of the current Premier Soccer League (PSL) season.
Tshabalala represented South Africa for 11 years IOL reported and his screamer against Mexico in the 2010 World Cup will always be a highlight for many Bafana fans.
Since his release from Amazulu, Tshabalala has not played a professional game leading many to believe that he had retired or was at least considering hanging up his boots.

FootballBut speaking to KickOff his representative Jazzman Mahlakgane said that the former Kaizer Chiefs player had no thoughts about retiring anytime soon.
"He has not (retired). But I don’t want to start any conversations about Shabba at the moment because I might get distracted as we are currently busy working on something for him."
