Bafana Bafana legend Doctor Khumalo believes Adams is playing with purpose and confidence after a difficult period out of the national setup.
Adams is back in the squad after a year away, following disciplinary issues that saw him miss the 2025 AFCON.
BAFANA BAFANA MIDFIELDER MAKING STATEMENT
“To be honest and precise we need to give this boy an applause because he was taken out of the squad,” said Khumalo.
“He was not playing at Sundowns and when he got a chance, listen, it’s like he’s saying ‘I don’t think you understand who am I, now let me show you’.
“He’ll hit you with an amazing pass you can only stop it in your heart. It will move right past you; your foot won’t even move.”

“No doubt he’s one of the best players right now. I do not dispute that. We can all see it. He’s good.
“He goes by his business quietly, you’ll be woken up by one of his champagne passes. He’s commanding the midfield at Sundowns he even benches [Marcelo] Allende,” Khumalo added.
For Adams, this return feels like more than just a recall, it’s a chance to reset his story.
