The Bafana hot seat remains vacant after Baxter's resignation last week and Molefi Ntseki has been asked to take over on an interim basis while Safa continues to search for a permanent replacement for the Briton. TiisetsoMalepa

The Highlands Park coach‚ who previously served as Bafana assistant under Ephraim “Shakes” Mashaba‚ has never hidden his desires on the job and added that Baxter's successor should be local."I have previously recommended quite a few coaches in your presence. I said I thought Gavin Hunt. I thought Pitso Mosimane. I thought Steve Komphela."But if nobody is available and I’m asked to serve the country‚ I will serve the country. But as you know I have made my recommendations.

Da Gama said Komphela ‚ Hunt and Mosimane play the kind of football that is needed at Bafana level.
