With just a few days to the international friendly against Eswatini, Broos has had to juggle his team around.
The latest juggling act comes in the form of Pirates star Saleng, who has withdrawn from Broos' side due to the injury he sustained in the MTN8 final last weekend.
As a replacement, the Belgian coach has called up reinvigorated Khanyisa Mayo, who has rediscovered his scoring touch for Cape Town City this season.
The 25-year-old, who was the joint DStv Premiership goal scorer last season; experienced a slump in form at the start of the 2023/24 campaign.
He has now scored three goals in his last four matches for the Citizens in the league and will be hoping to replicate that form for the national team.
Bafana Bafana take on Eswatini at FNB Stadium this Friday. Kick off is at 18:00
