Bafana Bafana coach Stuart Baxter says Mamelodi Sundowns defender Rivaldo Coetzee has not reported for training since Sunday.
According to Baxter, Coetzee was given permission to go see his mother whom he reported being critically ill.
“Rivaldo called me the day we were assembling and said his mother was critically ill, and he didn’t think she would make it through the night,” Baxter told the media.
