Junior Thabo Khanye, born on June 18, 1985, is a former South African footballer who played in the PSL for Malanti Chiefs, Kaizer Chiefs, Maritzburg United, and Platinum Stars.

Off-field issues hindered his on-field performance, leading to a loan spell at HP Silver Stars during the 2005/06 season. After a brief stint there, he joined Maritzburg United for the 2008/09 season, but struggled to secure regular playing time.
