BAFANA Bafana have reinforced their squad and technical team for the COSAFA Cup after Covid-19 ruled out two coaches.

Helman Mkhalele and goalkeeper coach Lucky Shiburi have been notable absentees from the opening two games while the squad only had four substitutes in the 1-0 win over eSwatini on Thursday.

Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Lebo Maboe, Baroka FC defender Lucky Sibiya and Bloemfontein Celtic striker Victor Letsoalo have now been added to bolster the options for the remainder of the tournament.
