Bafana Bafana head coach  Pitso Mosimane has announced his 23-man squad that will host Senegal in an international friendly at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban, on Wednesday February 29.

Mosimane announced the squad that will take on the Teranga Lions in Durban this morning in what what will be Senegal’s first game since their African Cup of Nations campaign.

Although the South African national coach has got the majority of his key players available for selection, he will have to do without the services of the Orlando Pirates players.

Pirates will be playing the second leg of their CAF Champions league encounter against Angolan outfit Clube Recreativo Desportivo do Libolo only three days after the international friendly, and as a result the players will not be available for international duty.

“The eThekwini municipality is delighted to be hosting Bafana Bafana at the iconic Moses Mabhida Stadium. It has ben a while since Durban hosted an international soccer match at teh stadium and we know our people have been yearning for this opportunity, “said Cllr Nomvuzo Shabalala, the Deputy Mayor of eThekwini.
