Kaizer Chiefs player Njabulo Blom is excited to represent his country at the upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
The 21-year-old Amakhosi midfielder was called up by new Bafana head coach Hugo Broos for games against Zimbabwe (3 September) and Ghana (6 September).
Blom was first called up for South Africa for an international friendly with Uganda in June and is ready to display his talents to a wider audience.
He said on the Chiefs website: “I am very happy that I am going to represent my country. It is every player’s dream for them to represent their country,
“It means a lot, because now I am representing the entire country.
“Whenever I get the opportunity, I have to give my best. Everyone will be watching.
“I have to keep my head on the ground and focus. It means a lot to represent my country, not every player gets this opportunity.”
