The South African Football Association (Safa) has postponed the announcement of the new Bafana Bafana head coach scheduled to take place on Saturday, citing Covid-19 travel issues.

The football governing body was expected to make the announcement at their headquarters, Safa House, on Saturday but was forced to delay the unveiling of Molefi Ntseki’s successor.

This postponement could indicate that the new South African head coach will be coming from overseas.

The South African national team have since released the following statement on the postponement:

‘BREAKING: The Bafana Bafana coach announcement scheduled for Saturday, 24 April 2021 has been postponed due to global Covid-19 travel issues.

‘We will reschedule the announcement to next week and further updates will be provided on this page.

‘We apologize for the inconvenience caused.’
