The Citizens hitman has lauded his coach McCarthy after being included in the Bafana squad ahead of the continental tournament
Cape Town City striker Kermit Erasmus says he was surprised to see his name in the Bafana Bafana squad named for the 2019 Caf African Cup of Nations tournament.
The nippy forward has been included in the preliminary squad named by coach Stuart Baxter this week and he says he always wanted to play for the national side.
“I was just having lunch with a few friends and was following the squad announcement on Twitter, and I was obviously very happy to hear that I was named in the preliminary squad,” Erasmus told Phakaaathi.
