Bafana welcome Tau, Blom to camp in Pretoria

Bafana Bafana have confirmed that Al Ahly star Percy Tau and St. Louis City SC midfielder Njabulo Blom have joined the squad’s camp in Pretoria.

The South African national team reported for camp on Monday at the University of Pretoria’s High Performance Centre (HPC) to prepare fr their upcoming Afcon qualifier against Morocco on Saturday.

However, Tau only reported for national team duty on Wednesday after he helped Al Ahly win their 11th Caf Champions League title against Wydad Casablanca this past weekend.

Like Tau, Blom also reported for duty after he played the full 90 minutes for St. Louis City SC in their 1-1 draw against LA Galaxy in the Major Soccer League on Sunday.

Tau and Blom have since linked up with their national teammates as they gear up for their final Group K qualifier against Morocco.

“A warm welcome to Percy Tau and Njabulo Blom. Good to have you home. Bafana boast a full squad. Let the games begin,” Bafana posted on their official Twitter page.
