Former Ghana star John Paintsil has been honoured by South African side Kaizer Chiefs.
Paintsil who is an assistant coach at the club received an award for his contribution towards the club's fine performance in the just ended South African League.
Chiefs finished 4th at the end of a season that saw minnows Bidvest West emerging as surprised winners of the PSL title.
But the contribution of the former Ghana star, who until his appointment as their assistant coach, had not taken up any coaching job before, has been tremendously admired by the Glamour Boys.
The former Ghana international defender John Paintsil was appointed as the new assistant coach of the South African Premier League club in June 2016.
The 36-year-old worked alongside Chiefs head coach Steve Komphela, a manager he worked under when he was playing at Maritzburg United three seasons ago.
He replaced former South African international Doctor Khumalo as Chiefs' assistant.
