South Africa's Greatest No.10s

South Africa's Greatest No.10s

The No.10 jersey is highly sought after at most clubs across the globe, let alone in South Africa, but who, in Mzansi, are the biggest names to have donned the famous number?

Without a doubt, one of the biggest names to have pulled on the playmaker jersey was Jomo Sono, but there are others who have done this position proud.

In fact, Orlando Pirates have retired this particular – Steve Lekoelea was the last player to wear it full-time, albeit it was for a short spell too.

Oupa Manyisa has had the honour of wearing the No.10, but that was restricted to CAF Confederation Cup appearances, while across at Kaizer Chiefs, the jersey is currently vacant despite George Lebese eager to have the pressure put on his shoulders. 

This could largely be due to the great Kaizer Motaung Senior, who utilised that number as a player.
