Tau's different class - former Bafana Bafana midfielder Modubi

Ex-Bafana Bafana international Masilo Modubi says Percy Tau should be fearless if he wants to play in the Premier League.

Modubi was once on the books of English giants Chelsea as a youngster, but the retired defensive midfielder never got the chance to play for the Blues first team.

He had not earned enough national team caps for a United Kingdom work permit so he had to spend time with Belgian club Westerlo on loan from Chelsea until he was released by the London giants.

Tau, who was on loan at Club Brugge this past season from Brighton and Hove Albion, is also facing the same problem, having moved to the Premier League side from Mamelodi Sundowns in 2018.
