Itu sparks new romance rumours

Johannesburg - When is a fitness trainer no longer just a fitness trainer? When she becomes your bae!

That's the rumour on the street after fitness consultant, Sbahle Mpisane, added further fuel to love rumours between herself and Bafana Bafana goalkeeper, Itumeleng Khune.

The pair have been dodging rumours of a romance for some time now, but it seems that they might be ready to give their romance the green light, after Sbahle posted an Instagram snap of her and Itu in this telling embrace. 

I didn't tackle him. I gave him a flying hug ?? #MCM

And as if the snap wasn't cosy enough, the caption to the picture definitely hints at a possible romance. It reads: "I didn't tackle him. I gave him a flying hug #MCM," coupled with a big juicy heart emoticon.

As friends and fans teased the couple about the post, Itu's team mate, George Maluleka commented that the couple "look cute shem."

Leading Itu to respond with a comment that referred to Sbahle as "babe" and tagged her in the comment.

Oh la la! Itu and Sbahle kissing in a tree....
