The star also owns a VW Golf. Judging from his social media feeds, the German automobile was seemingly his first purchase. Unconfirmed reports also suggest that he owns a BMW. However, contrary to the rumour mill, the star has yet to confirm the news.
No doubt Melusi Buthelezi’s impressive fleet often thrust him into the top trends, leaving many trying to connect the dots about his income streams. However, the star has managed to keep his private life under wraps, leaving many to guess.
CAREER
Melusi Buthelezi started his senior career with the National First Division side Jomo Cosmos before moving to TS Galaxy in 2020. In 2022, he made his international debut, coming from the bench while playing against Sierra Leone.
However, his impressive form with TS Galaxy saw many teams fighting for his signature. Buthelezi kept ten clean sheets in the 21 games he played for the club. However, he made eight clean sheets in his first ten appearances for the Soweto giants.
The star confirmed his exit from TS Galaxy at the end of the 2022/2023 season. “I will be forever grateful for the opportunity this team gave me,” Buthelezi posted on social media a few hours after TS Galaxy wrapped up their season.
Melusi Buthelezi has undoubtedly won big with Orlando Pirates and capped his career with some silverware.
