Mbule Replaces injured Maswanganyi in Bafana Squad

by Lwandiso Simanga 

Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos has made a late change to his 23-man squad, calling up Sipho Mbule to replace the injured Patrick Maswanganyi.

Maswanganyi, who had been included in the national team for the upcoming fixtures, was forced to withdraw after sustaining an injury. His absence opens the door for Mbule, who will now link up with the squad as they continue preparations.

Broos has emphasized the importance of maintaining squad depth and balance, and Mbule’s inclusion offers the team another creative option in midfield. Known for his vision and composure on the ball, Mbule will be looking to make the most of the opportunity and impress on the international stage.

The national team remains focused on their upcoming assignments, with Broos confident that the squad has enough quality to adapt despite the setback.
