Hlatshwayo, according to SuperSport's website, said:

“SuperSport United is a team that is known to win trophies and I hope I can share my experience which means I have to equally work hard. There is competition in the team which is good for the energy around the players as well as keeping the togetherness and I will make sure I earn my right to play.”

In their time together at Wits, the duo of Hunt and Hlatshwayo also led the Students to the Telkom Knockout trophy in 2017. The team defeated Bloemfontein Celtic 1-0 at the Princess Magogo Stadium in Durban.
