Kekana names Kaizer Chiefs ready to break into Bafana

According to iDiskiTimes, Kekana, who was part of the SABC analyst for the game between Chiefs and Gallants, believes Sameklo Zwane is good enough to break into the South African men's national team's setup.

The former Sundowns captain listed some of the qualities the Kaizer Chiefs midfielder possesses that give him a good chance of being called up by Hugo Broos.

"I fancy young Samkelo Zwane to be the player they can rely on in terms of being on the ball more," he said.
"This is a player that I believe should be on the Bafana team this coming season because of the quality that he possesses.
"He knows how to play the longer and the shorter passes and how to play in the half-spaces.
