A rather familiar name to South African football lovers, Pyramids FC star Fiston Mayele seems to know fashion almost as well as he knows how to score goals. Here's a look!
The story
Mayele is expected to be on many people’s lips this week, as he is set to make the journey from Egypt to South Africa in the coming days.
Pyramids will be hosted by Orlando Pirates on Friday in the first leg of the CAF Champions League semi-final.

Mayele hasn’t always endeared himself to South African fans. In December 2023, he had a public outburst after being unable to travel to the country to face Mamelodi Sundowns due to visa issues.
Despite some tension around that incident, the DR Congo international remains one of the African stars regularly linked with a move to the Betway Premiership.
The 30-year-old, who has already scored six goals in nine Champions League games this season, appears to be just as stylish off the pitch as he is clinical on it.
Admittedly, Mayele's dress sense is quite appealing, aligning perfectly with the current trend of wearing baggy clothes.
His taste in sneakers is also impressive, boasting luxury footwear like the Louis Vuitton Skate Sneaker — said to be worth $1,370 (approximately R25,000), according to the brand’s official online store.
Indeed, the player clearly makes an effort when it comes to his appearance, as shown by the stunning items in his wardrobe.
