Zungu, who was recently released by Premiership side AmaZulu FC, showed off his luxurious wheels on social media while enjoying a road trip.

The South African midfielder has represented Bafana Bafana and built a successful career across clubs in France, Portugal, Scotland and South Africa. Widely regarded as one of the country's most accomplished footballers, he has enjoyed success both locally and abroad.

He began his professional career with the University of Pretoria, where his impressive performances earned him a move to Mamelodi Sundowns in 2013. After three successful seasons with the Brazilians, he secured a lucrative move to Portuguese side Vitoria Guimaraes.
