Stellenbosch defender, Fawaaz Basadien to captain upcoming Bafana Bafana internationals

Date: Jun 5, 2025

The coach of South Africa’s (SA) national soccer team, Hugo Broos has named Stellenbosch defender, Fawaaz Basadien as Captain of Bafana Bafana in the two friendlies against Tanzania and Mozambique

Bafana will face Tanzania on Friday evening before welcoming Mozambique on Tuesday.  Both encounters will be played at new Peter Mokaba Stadium in the city of Polokwane, in the Limpopo Province.  Bafana's longest serving coach, Broos says it is important to balance out time on the field.

“First of all I have to say that Fawaaz will be our captain so he is our captain as I said I want to give play time to everybody so you have to look a little bit who I will put in the team, you can't put all the youngsters in one team. Fawaaz is one of the oldest player I think the choice was made very quickly,” Broos said.
