Bafana Bafana news: Broos reinforces backroom staff for Afcon

Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos has reinforced his backroom staff for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon).

Broos has made two additions to his usual technical team to ensure that Bafana Bafana are well ahead at the finals.

Bafana Bafana are one of the teams tipped to win the Afcon trophy after doing so well during the qualifiers.

Their exploits at the 2023 Afcon where they finished third and won bronze also make them strong favourites.

Now, it’s clear that Broos is aiming at improving from the previous edition before bowing out after the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
