Tshegofatso is a diminutive, elegant, and creative left-footed playmaker with a slender build, who is capable of playing in several attacking and midfield positions. He is known for his technique, acceleration, agility, passing, vision, and dribbling skills, as well as his energy. Although he is known for his ability to carry the ball forward, run at defenses, and retain possession, he is also an intelligent team player, with a strong personality, who prefers to participate in the build-up of offensive plays rather than undertaking individual dribbling runs. Despite primarily being a creative midfielder, he is also capable of scoring goals himself.
