Kaizer Chiefs reject now ready to prove he has 'potential to be at Bafana Bafana' - 'I just need time to get my confidence back'

Two years ago, Puso Dithejane unceremoniously left Kaizer Chiefs after falling out with the management.

TS Galaxy owner Tim Sukazi took him in and since then, the youngster has been massive for the Rockets.

In the 2023-24 season, Dithejane played 16 games for TS Galaxy across all competitions, scoring a goal and providing an assist in the process.

The attacker anticipated a better start to the 2024-25 campaign but things have not gone according to plan.

In the 13 games so far in all tournaments, Dithejane has a goal and an assist.

Nevertheless, he is not impressed with his displays but has promised to work on them and force his way into Bafana Bafana.

“I can’t say I’m happy with how my season is going so far but I’m progressing,” the midfielder stated.

“You are yet to witness a new Puso Dithejane. I just need time to get my confidence back.

“What I still need to fix in my game is scoring goals and providing assists. So, I stay behind after training doing extra work, shooting and passing just fixing my game so expect a new Puso Dithejane.

“The Puso Dithejane that makes the national team is who you should expect and I won’t just give up on being in the national team because I do have the potential to be there. So, I’m going to push and add what’s necessary for me to be in the national team," he concluded.

Getting into the current Bafana Bafana squad will not be a walk in the park for the midfielder.

He has to prove he is ready by consistently delivering exceptionally for Galaxy in the ongoing campaign.
