'Monyane should start for Bafana ahead of van Rooyen and Mudau' ex-Chiefs star
Former Kaizer Chiefs defender Mokete Tsotetsi feels Amakhosi's new signing Thabiso Monyane is ready to feature for Bafana Bafana. The 25-year-old right-back has been in good form since joining Chiefs on a free transfer. Having struggled for game time at Orlando Pirates, the defender was released, together with Paseka Mako. Both players were signed by the Glamour Boys in June. With Deano van Rooyen injured and Khuliso Mudau not playing for Sundowns, Tsotetsi says this could be a perfect opportunity for Monyane to play for Bafana. 'He did not have a good season last season [at Pirates] and he has come to Chiefs looking fit, and I think he has come at the right time,' he said as quoted by Soccer Laduma . 'He is doing well in the first few matches for Chiefs, and you can see that he is gaining confidence. 'With Khuliso Mudau not playing and Thapelo Morena out injured and Van Rooyen only making his first appearance of the season recently, Monyane stands a good chance of being the first choice right back in the upcoming Bafana Bafana squad,' Tsotetsi added. 'You can see his confidence is growing game by game. He is doing well with the game time he is getting. I know coach Broos is a coach who gives players who are doing well a chance. 'So, I think he will be considered for the national team, and it will be good for him,' he concluded. Despite Tsotetsi's comments, Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos did not include Monyane in his preliminary squad on Thursday.

PSL Club 100: Shalulile and Nomvethe lead the goalscoring charts!
Mamelodi Sundowns striker Peter Shalulile has finally broken Siyabonga Nomvethe's long-standing PSL goalscoring record. It took the Namibia international just 10 years to equal Nomvethe's record, and he did that with just two teams. Shalulile first arrived in the PSL in 2015 when he signed for Highlands Park. He then joined Sundowns in 2020. Now, he has scored 129 goals in the South African topflight, the same number goals scored by Nomvethe during his playing days. It is worth mentioning that Nomvethe officially retired from football in September 2018, meaning his record stood for seven years. The South African takes a look at players – active and inactive – who scored 100 or more goals in the PSL era.
