Bafana back at work ahead of crunch AFCON clashes against Kenya

9 November 2026 – Bafana Bafana are back in camp ahead of the back-to-back 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Kenya this month.

Coach Pitso Mosimane’s charges host the Harambee Stars at Orlando Amstel Arena in Johannesburg on Friday, 13 November 2026 before traveling to Nairobi for the second match to be played on Tuesday, 17 November 2026. Kick off at Orlando is at 18h00.

Mosimane had his first training session at Milpark Stadium on Monday evening but was without a few players as they continue to arrive from different corners of the globe. The United States of America-based Mbekezeli Mbokazi, Lyle Foster and Puso Dithejane, and the European-based Relebohile Mofokeng and Sphephelo Sithole are all expected in Johannesburg on Monday night. Samukele Kabini is expected to arrive on Tuesday.

Mosimane said Bafana Bafana will thread very carefully against a Kenya side that is a bit under pressure at home.

“You have to be very careful when you are playing against an emotional team because they have got nothing lose,” said Mosimane.
