The final Bafana Bafana squad for the upcoming Cosafa Cup has been named, with all the players from Kaizer Chiefs, Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns not forming part of the team, despite a few being named in the preliminary roster.
Bafana will be coached by Hugo Broos' assistant, Helman Mkhalele, throughout the competition, and he will have some exciting talent to work with in his 23-man squad.

The Cosafa Cup will give some of the players an opportunity to impress and possibly convince head coach Broos to pick them for bigger matches going forward.
The likes of Devin Titus, Antonio Van Wyk, Tshepang Moremi and Thabo Maloisane have come off good seasons and can use the Cosafa Cup to prove their international value.
The Cosafa Cup is set to start on Wednesday and Bafana have been drawn in Group A with Mozambique, Eswatini and Botswana, a tough group which will test the players and Mkhalele.
