Hugo Broos believes that Orlando Pirates star Relebohile Mofokeng will need to be used differently if he is to reach his potential.
Broos says Orlando Pirates star Mofokeng isn’t a winger
Hugo Broos believes Relebohile Mofokeng’s best position is behind the striker as a number 10, rather than as a wide attacker. The 21-year-old is one of six Buccaneers stars in Broos’ latest Bafana squad to face Panama, but Sipho Chaine isn’t one of them.
“He is not a winger, but I will see now if he can satisfy us in that position,” said Broos.
“For me, he will not play anymore on the wing because I don’t think he is a winger. He doesn’t have the qualities to be a winger, but he can be a good number 10,” Broos said.
“With his intelligence and qualities, he can help the team a lot. It’s up to him now; I will give him a chance, and we will see what happens.”
