Kickoff (Cape Town)
13 November 2008
Bafana Bafana coach Joel Santana today announced his squad for next week's Nelson Mandela Challenge clash with Cameroon.
The players will report for camp on Monday in Johannesburg, from where they will depart for Rustenburg, where they will have a training session in the afternoon.
Despite the inclusion of Benni McCarthy, it is unlikely that the Blackburn Rovers' striker will be available for the match following the passing of his father this week.
Safa revealed they are waiting on McCarthy to inform them of his decision.
The 23-man Bafana squad is:
Goalkeepers: Brian Baloyi (Mamelodi Sundowns), Itumeleng Khune (Kaizer Chiefs)
Defenders: Matthew Booth (Krylya Sovetov), Bradley Carnell (Karlsruher), Siboniso Gaxa (Mamelodi Sundowns), Morgan Gould (SuperSport United), Tsepo Masilela (Maccabi Haifa), Aaron Mokoena (Blackburn Rovers), Nasief Morris (Recreativo)
Midfielders: Lance Davids (Djurgardens), Kagisho Dikgacoi (Golden Arrows), Thulasizwe Mbuyane (Orlando Pirates), Teko Modise (Orlando Pirates), Masilo Modubi (Westerlo), Siyabonga Nkosi (Arminia Bielefeld), Thabo Nthethe (Bloemfontein Celtic), Steven Pienaar (Everton), MacBeth Sibaya (Rubin Kazan), Siphiwe Tshabalala (Kaizer Chiefs)
Strikers: Bernard Parker (Thanda Royal Zulu FC), Katlego Mphela (Mamelodi Sundowns), Benni McCarthy (Blackburn Rovers).
