Even though Itumeleng Khune has fought the number 1 spot in Amakhosi, Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos has dropped a bombshell on Khune.
“I’ve known Khune from a long time ago when I was still the Cameroon coach, and he was the Bafana goalkeeper,” said Broos.
“He is a very good goalkeeper but then again, I’m very sorry to say this, but as you know my philosophy, he is 35 years old.
“I’ve watched most Kaizer Chiefs games when he was playing. I cannot say he’s a bad goalkeeper now but is he the future?” asked Broos.
“If South Africa qualifies for the Afcon, he will be 37. I’m sorry, I don’t dismiss his qualities. He is a quality goalkeeper but not for me.
“How can you prepare for the future with someone who is 37?” Broos asked again.
