Pitso Mosimane targets Springboks model to drive Bafana Bafana's youth revolution

Pitso Mosimane, coach of Bafana Bafana, states that South African football should emulate the Springboks' squad-building model to develop a deep pool of talent. He is set to lead his first match with Bafana against Guinea in a 2027 AFCON qualifier, fielding a strong lineup with experienced leaders and emerging young players. Mosimane praised the depth of South African football and highlighted how the Springboks' approach of playing young players, including U18s, at the highest level demonstrates the importance of stacking talent behind the national teams. He aims for South African football to adopt a similar strategy to strengthen its player development.
