Teko Modise's book reveals shocking details about his life: I'm cursed, my marriage failed, I don't have a house


MULTI-AWARD-winning soccer star, Teko Modise, known on the pitch as 'The General', recently launched his tell-all book that reveals shocking details of his personal life and soccer career. The title on its own, The Curse Of Teko Modise, sparks curiosity and the shocking contents of his failed marriage, alcohol abuse, homelessness and fall out with his coach are a reader's treat.
KNOWING REJECTION
Throughout his soccer career, Teko (35) has been hogging headlines for different reasons in his personal life – like his failed marriage to Felicia Modise who has since changed her surname to Mokoena, his disastrous engagement to Lizelle Tabane which ended in her calling him gay, and him demanding his lobola back.
In the book, Teko also talks about how he got used to being rejected at the age of eight when his father kicked him out of the house and his mother's family told him that they couldn't take him in.
"I got used to being rejected. If it can happen with my parents, then who are you to hurt me?" he asks, referring to people who have walked out of his life.
SOCCER IS HIS FIRST LOVE
"At least Teko still had football. He remembers football as his escape, his happiness and his release," an extract in the book reads. However, this only applied during his childhood because soccer did not always bring happiness. His squabbles with Orlando Pirates, a team that contributed much to his brand, left him depressed. Also, this was a time he had to deal with a publicised broken marriage.
FAILED MARRIAGE
"My marriage was like prison. I would come back from training and sleep in the car to avoid getting into the house, for peace of mind," he says.
In the book, Teko mentions how he never loved Felicia and how he only married her because she was pregnant with their first child, Paballo.
"He realised later that when the baby was not around, he found it difficult to be with Felicia. But because he had committed to the marriage for Paballo's sake, he needed to make it work," reads an extract from the book.
Felicia has since kept mum regarding what has been written about her.
"I am not ready to comment on the matter. I am seeking legal action," says Felicia, adding that she will respond when the time is right. Teko, unfazed by this, says, "Let her sue so I can write my second book."
AILING RELATIONSHIP WITH PITSO
Mamelodi Sundowns coach, Pitso Mosimane, was once someone who gave Teko a chance to do what he loves when he got into professional soccer at the age of 19.
However, when Pitso became a coach for Mamelodi Sundowns where Teko was the captain, the ground was shaken a bit and their relationship deteriorated.
"I realised that either myself or Pitso had to go. It was clear he wasn't going anywhere," Teko says.
He adds he has not spoken to Pitso in two years. Teko is now playing for Cape Town City, coached by Benny McCarthy, who regards him as a true soccer legend.

Meet the woman who has South Africa’s sweetest punani

Image
The winner of the contest to find the South Africa’s most beautiful punani has been announced! She’s known as Nell, and her real name hasn’t been revealed. But we do know that she lives in Soweto. “I still do not believe I have a special vag!na. I happen to have the best picture of my vag!na. That’s it. It’s nothing less, it’s nothing more,” the winner said. The search for the most beautiful punani in the Mzansi: The vag!na Beauty Pageant was the brainchild of Brian Sloan, the inventor of the Autoblow2, an oral s.e.x simulator for men. Sloan launched the search for the world’s most aesthetically pleasing v.ulva as a way to find a model for a future iteration of the Autoblow 2, which would use a “vag!na sleeve” to stimulate the user’s pen!s rather than a rubber mouth. “There are stock vag!nas available at factories, but I thought it would be nice to deduce what kind of vag!nal appearance my customers prefer and then design vag!na sleeves based on their feedback,” he told the...
