His talent was undeniable, and he impressed the coaches with his skills and determination. Tsholofelo was offered an opportunity to join the stay in Italy and join Serie D Team Cartigliano Calcio. Unfortunately, the cost was unaffordable, and he had to return to South Africa.
Since then, Tsholofelo has been training hard and developing to ensure he is ready for any opportunity that comes his way. He has maintained contact with the coaches and has since been invited to a professional senior showcase in Italy, where he has the opportunity to play professional teams in hopes of securing a contract and starting his European soccer journey.
