Bafana Bafana legend Alfred Phiri says Lebogang Manyama deserves to be nominated for the PSL Footballer of the Year award.
Manyama has been a consistent performer for league title contenders, Kaizer Chiefs in the current campaign.
The attacking midfielder has contributed nine assists and seven goals across all competitions thus far.
