It seemed like the 64-year-old had everything sown up after the SAFA NEC approved his candidacy but a report in the French media has linked a Chelsea legend with the South Africa job. Despite this, Jingles is still considered the frontrunner to replace Hugo Broos.

SAFA have already announced that in an NEC Extraordinary Meeting at SAFA House on August 8 that 'Jingles' would be South Africa's next head coach. The appointment was supposed to be announced shortly afterwards but a disagreement over the pay structure has seen it drag on past the middle of the month. Assuming rumours of progress are correct, Pitso will have a substantial Inbox to busy himself with when he assumes the hot seat vacated by Hugo Broos.

We are now just hours away from the start of the 2026 World Cup finals in the United States, Canada and Mexico, with all 48 teams having made their way to North America with dreams of glory driving them. All of the pre-qualifying favourites made it safely through, including Spain, Brazil, England, France and defending champions Argentina.

South Africa's road to the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations has been mapped out following the official qualifying draw. Bafana will have to navigate an interesting group if they are to secure their spot at the tournament hosted across East Africa.
