WATCH: League champion Elias Mokwana sends message to Kaizer Chiefs! Amakhosi hopeful scores to help Esperance Sportive de Tunis clinch the Tunisian league title with Olympique Beja win

Bafana Bafana star Elias Mokwana scored as Esperance romped to a 5-0 victory over Olympique Beja to win the Tunisian league title.

The win saw Mokwana's side clinch a record-extending 34th title as their closest rivals, Monastir, were held to a 1-1 draw by ES Metlaoui.

The former Sekhukhune United star was among the starters but came off the bench and scored the last goal. Yan Sasse earned a brace, with the other goals scored by Mohamed Belaili and Houssem Tka.

He becomes the first South African to win the Tunisian top-flight title and has achieved that in his first stint since he joined the former African champions before the season began.

This is Mokwana's second trophy with Esperance, who were eliminated by Mamelodi Sundowns in the Caf Champions League at the quarter-final, since he had won the Super Cup on February 16. Indeed, he scored in that cup final game against Stade Tunisien, where they emerged 2-0 winners.

Before he moved north, Mokwana was heavily linked with Kaizer Chiefs, who were interested in his services. He signed for Esperance, became one of the regular starters, and is now a champion.

With Chiefs expected to rebuild the playing unit, eyes will be keen to see whether the 25-year-old will be among the new recruits. Recently, he revealed he is an Amakhosi fan and did not entirely rule out signing for them one day.

On May 15, Esperance will face Monastir in a league season-ending clash.

In June, they will be part of the Club World Cup tournament and will start their campaign with a match against Brazil's Flamengo on June 17.
