SuperSport United have announced their club award winners for the 2021/22 season with Onismor Bhasera, Gamphani Lungu and Thamsanqa Gabuza among the big winners.
Gabuza, 35, was awarded the top scorer award alongside Lungu for their seven goals netted last season as they became the focal points for the attack in the absence of Bradley Grobler.
The Zambia international forward also scooped the Players’ Player Award at the annual event while Jesse Donn was duly honoured with the Young Player of the Season title.
Despite having a squad packed with youthful players, it was 36-year-old Zimbabwe left-back Onismor Bhasera, who secured the Player of the Season as he starred in all but two league games in the season that has passed.
The veteran full-back who first arrived in South Africa with Tembisa Classic 17 years ago and enjoyed stints with Maritzburg United, Golden Arrows, Jomo Cosmos, Kaizer Chiefs, English outfit Plymouth Argle, Bidvest Wits and now United is still going strong despite his advancing age.
The return of Gavin Hunt as head coach and the recent exit of long-serving captain Ronwen Williams to Mamelodi Sundowns has see ‘Bash’ appointed as the new club captain for the 2022/23 campaign.
