Bafana squad member cools his heels as coronavirus outbreak delays start of season

31 March 2020 - 15:55Striker Lars Veldwijk‚ who was part of SA’s squad at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations finals in Egypt‚ is still waiting to make his league debut after moving to South Korea.

“For a footballer to play in the Champions League‚ it is among the highest honours‚ even though it wasn’t the Uefa Champions League but it is still the top competition in Asia. We’re playing the champions of Australia‚ Japan and we also have Chinese club Shanghai‚ where the Brazilians Hulk and Oscar play‚ in our group.

The start of the new league season in Korea has been delayed by the outbreak of the coronavirus‚ which affected Korea not long after China and well before the current crisis in Europe. Veldwijk is in a form of lockdown at the club where he also stays in accommodation at the stadium. “I have my own room and the facilities can be compared with some of the best in the world — swimming pool‚ sauna‚ training fields‚ indoor halls‚” he added.
