After graduating from the Stars of Africa Academy, Theron played four seasons for Milano United before being bought by Highlands Park in 2016. The club was newly promoted to the first tier, and Theron made his first-tier debut in the 2016-17 South African Premier Division.[1][2] Highlands Park were relegated again after one season.[3] After Highlands Park, Theron played for Cape Umoya United.
Theron returned to the top flight with Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila. He won the 2020–21 Nedbank Cup with the team[4] before being signed by Maritzburg United ahead of the 2021–22 season.[5] In 2022, the team found itself at the bottom of the table when the Premier Division took a World Cup break, at which time Theron was injured.[6] After the season ended in relegation, Theron was able to stay in the Premier Division nonetheless, as he was signed by Golden Arrows.[7]
