Exclusive: Nasief Morris Welcomes Carlos Alberto Parreira's Return To South Africa
Spanish-based South African defender Nasief Morris is keen to get his Bafana career back on track, as he explained to Goal.com's Ed Aarons...
Nasief Morris will have little sympathy for the demise of South Africa coach Joel Santana. He was a regular last season
for Recreativo de Huelva in the Primera Division before moving to Racing Santander
in the close season, where he has been equally prevalent in the squad.
Despite being the only Bafana player in one of the toughest leagues in the world, Morris found himself out of the international frame. But having featured in almost every match during Parreira’s first stint in charge, he unsurprisingly welcomed the Brazilian's appointment.
“We were doing well with Parreira before he left and you could see that results were improving steadily,” Morris told Goal.com.

“It’s not for
me to say whether it should be a local coach in charge – all I want
is to be back there and to represent my country again. The main thing
is the experience that Parreira has in international football, which
is only going to help the team.
"He knows everything about the players so it won’t be that difficult for him to settle in – if it had been someone completely new then it may have taken time for him to get used to our style of football.”
Morris added, “We only have a few months to get it right now so it’s crucial we can progress quickly."
The experienced defender may be called up for Bafana's November encounters against Japan and Jamaica.
