FEATURING AS OUR COVER STAR IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE HUAWEI WATCH GT 4, Teko Modise is no stranger to being in the spotlight and is known for his stylish fashion fits, best-selling sports biography The Curse of Teko Modise, ambitious nature, and of course his football career.

He played for several South African clubs during his career, starting with City Pillars. Modise gained national recognition during his time with Orlando Pirates, later transferring to Mamelodi Sundowns; winning several league titles and cup competitions during his time with the club. He also represented the South African national team, Bafana Bafana, earning numerous caps during his international career In the later stages of his career, Modise joined Cape Town City FC before retiring from professional football in 2019.

Since his retirement, Modise has remained involved in the sport through various endeavours, such as being Supersport pundit and a Mamelodi Sundowns ambassador.

In addition, he is an ambassador for a range of brands including NGR, Samsonite, and Huawei.

Speaking of his partnership with the Huawei Watch 4 series, Modise says that the watch fits perfectly into his busy lifestyle, not only due to its exended battery life of up to 14 days, but its versatility of being able to suit and accompany him through every facet of his day.

As someone who's juggling different roles, I need a watch that is not only functional, but also stylish and compatible with any smartphone I have, whether Android or IOS,' says Modise. Even though I'm not a professional football player anymore, I'm still quite active and the Huawei watch GT 4 has some of the greatest sportsmodes such as running and cycling, as well as trendy sports modes includng e-sports and padel!
