AmaZulu have no interest in letting Bafana Bafana-linked McCarthy leave - Safa warned

AmaZulu FC chairman Sandile Zungu has warned the South African Football Association that Benni McCarthy is not available to coach Bafana Bafana.

Safa is set to appoint a new coach as a replacement for Molefi Ntseki after the local tactician was dismissed by the association following Bafana''s failure to qualify for the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) finals.

McCarthy is among the coaches who have been linked with the South Africa coaching job with Bafana set to start their 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifiers in June 2021.
