Why Morena Ramoreboli could be Pitso Mosimane’s secret weapon at Bafana

Morena Ramoreboli’s national-team experience and knowledge of southern African football could give Pitso Mosimane a valuable perspective as Bafana Bafana begin their 2027 AFCON qualifying campaign.

Why Morena Ramoreboli could be Pitso Mosimane’s secret weapon at Bafana

Pitso Mosimane, the new Bafana Bafana coach, has added a new member to his technical team - Morena Ramoreboli. The assistant coach is set to bring valuable experience to the team as they prepare for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign. Mosimane, who previously worked with Ramoreboli in Botswana, believes the appointment will prove to be one of the most important.

Ramoreboli's recent experience of managing a national team, along with his success in continental football, could be crucial for Bafana. His knowledge of the African football landscape and ability to quickly read opponents and players will be particularly valuable. Mosimane understands the importance of having people around him who not only agree with his football philosophy, but also bring their own unique experiences to the table.

Ramoreboli's previous work in the Bafana setup and his time in Botswana have given him a different perspective on the game in the region, making him a valuable addition to Mosimane's team. With the 2027 AFCON qualifiers just around the corner, Mosimane's new technical team will need to settle quickly. Together, Rangoaga, Matlaba, and Ramoreboli could form a powerful combination that will help Bafana compete consistently beyond South Africa's borders.
