Third in the Chiefs perking order at right back, his inactivity can potentially cost him an opportunity to play at Under-23 Afcon finals in Egypt in November‚ where the top three teams reach the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.
The Port Elizabeth-born star was on Wednesday missing from the final 23-man squad announced by coach David Notoane‚ who said “level of match preparedness” was his main criteria when he trimmed the squad from the initial provisional one of 27.
“It was a very difficult task of selecting the final 23 players to take to Angola‚ and that is mainly because we had a good number of players who gave it their all in this selection camp [this week‚ with 27 players]‚” Notoane said. “We assessed the level of match preparedness in the players we had roped in for our provisional squad‚ and I must say that I am happy with the final squad we have come up with.”
The Under-23 team‚ who flew out to Angola on Wednesday morning‚ take on their Angola counterparts at the Estádio 11 de November in the capital Luanda on Friday. Kickoff is at 5pm South African time.Liam Jordan‚ Sibusiso Mabiliso‚ Given Msimango and Fagrie Lakay are also notable omissions while Bongani Sam of Bloemfontein Celtic and Kanyiso Mayo of Richards Bay are the new names added who were not part of the provisional 27-man squad.
