Bafana coach Stuart Baxter wanted to include Untersee in his squad for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nation.

Bafana coach Stuart Baxter wanted to include Untersee in his squad for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations‚ but a long delay in the issuing of a passport to the right-sided player‚ as well as centre-back Nikola Tavares‚ scuppered that plan

The 25-year-old‚ who can play at right-back or as a right-winger‚ spent the second half of last season on loan in Zurich‚ but was partly hindered by a back injury and made only nine appearances in all competitions. FC Zurich have since turned down the opportunity to loan the Roodeport-born‚ Swiss junior international for a further 12 months‚ and he has been named in the pre-season squad of Empoli coach Cristian Bucchi.

He was also previously on the books of giants Juventus‚ but never played a first team game for the side. He did feature for Brescia in Serie Ab‚ and Lichtenstein club Vaduz‚ who play in the Swiss league.
