Mogorosi played a vital role in the Free State side's first cup triumph since 2005, including netting crucial goals in both the semi-final and final.

Phunya Sele Sele have since played out a draw and a defeat in the PSL, but Mogorosi says he is so far delighted to have signed with the side.

"For me I was only doing what Celtic brought me here to do and that is to help the team achieve things," Mogorosi told Football411.com

"They have been chasing me for the past three-years and I'm glad I could repay the faith they've shown in me this way (winning them a cup).

"Most people only got to know me after the match against Bafana, but for three years I've been up and down South Africa, I've attended trials at Pirates and Platinum Stars but all went fruitless.

"Until I played a friendly against Celtic with my former team from Botswana, Clinton Larsen noted me there and has been hunting me since. I should have arrived last season, but during the time which he wanted me here, I had a knock and so I couldn't come.

"But I'm glad that I finally signed and I'm finally feeling at home here."

The 28-year-old midfielder also sent out a warning to the team's PSL rivals, stating that Siwelele are an 'unfinished project'.

"Almost 75 percent of the team is new, the technical team is still trying to settle and find their positions and so are the players," he said.

"We are trying to settle, trying out different combinations and once we are all settled, you can expect more from Celtic. At the moment, we are an unfinished progress."

However, Celtic will be hoping to translate their cup form to their league matches when they host Moroka Swallows at the Free State Stadium this weekend.
