In the wake of Hugo Broos’ recent announcement of the Bafana Bafana squad for upcoming matches against Namibia and DR Congo, the absence of any Kaizer Chiefs players has sparked discussion.
Broos stated that, in his view, none of the Chiefs’ players currently meet the standard required to represent the national team.
Ntseki’s Reaction
Kaizer Chiefs’ coach, Molefi Ntseki, has responded to Broos’ comments, emphasizing that the composition of the national team squad ultimately rests with the national team coach.
He highlights that Broos has never provided a clear template or specific criteria for what he seeks in players for the Bafana Bafana setup.
Ntseki acknowledges that if Broos holds the view that none of the Chiefs’ players deserve a place in the current Bafana Bafana team, it’s a decision that, while unfortunate, must be respected.
Motivation to Prove Quality
Ntseki goes on to express the team’s collective motivation to work diligently and demonstrate not only to others but also to themselves that they possess quality within their ranks.
This response reflects the team’s determination to rise to the challenge and showcase their capabilities on the field.

Ntseki’s emphasis on the need for clear guidelines and criteria for national team selection is an important point.
