Safa refutes reports that Hugo Broos has been handed a year-long extension to his contract

Safa has refuted reports that Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos has been handed a one year contract extension.

Reports have been doing rounds that Broos is to be in charge of the national team for the next 12 months which includes him being in charge until next year's Africa Cup of Nations.

But Safa has come out to dispel those reports.

“SAFA has learnt with concern of reports and rumours being circulated by respected media houses alleging that Bafana Bafana Head Coach Hugo Broos has been offered or issued with a one-year contract extension,” said the association.

“SAFA wishes to categorically state that these reports are false, unfounded and misleading.

“To set the record straight, SAFA has not issued any contract to any coach in respect of the Bafana Bafana head coach position. Coach Hugo Broos remains under contract with SAFA until the end of July 2026, in accordance with his existing agreement.

“The Association’s governance processes regarding the Bafana Bafana technical team have not yet been concluded. Therefore no decision has been taken, and no contract has been issued or approved by the National Executive Committee.”
