The 28 year-old Rayners has been brilliant since re-joining Stellies in January 2023, after an unsuccessful stint at SuperSport United.
'With the Bafana call up and coming back, his game has even gone up another level. His link up play has improved a lot,' said the Stellenbosch head coach.
On Saturday he became just the second striker in the Premier Soccer League era to score five goals in a single match, after Zambian James Chamanga scored five for Moroka Swallows in a 6-2 win over Platinum Stars in December 2007. Rayners has been a key part of an incredible campaign up to now for Stellenbosch, who have already won the Carling Black Label Knockout, are in the semifinals of the Nedbank Cup, and are second in the DStv Premiership, and on target to grab a place in next season’s Caf Champions League.
