Sjava opens up about his love affair with soccer & why it didn't work out.

Sjava says will a little more discipline
he could have been a soccer star.

While many of us had ambitions to be policemen or doctors as kids, Sjava always knew  he'd either end up as a musician, actor or soccer player and he told TshisaLIVE all about it.

After gifting fans with hit songs like Ngempela, Umama, Impilo and many more, it's hard to imagine what the music industry in Mzansi and the world would be like without Sjava but if he had kept his discipline in check, we may have been cheering for him from the stadium stands at soccer matches.

"I've always known that it would be soccer or music for me. Even here, I used to play for Hillbrow Action Killers. Our coach was Bab' Khuzwayo. I played soccer and even went to Wits and trained there. I played for a team in Sandalwood as well. Growing up my time was taken up by either soccer or music."

Sjava said he loved soccer so much that he considered making it his career but his lack of discipline stood in his way.
