Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane feels Mosa Lebusa has got what it takes to challenge Buhle Mkhwanazi and Thulani Hlatshwayo for a place in the Bafana Bafana squad.
Lebusa has been one of Sundowns' star performers in the first month of the 2019/20 season, playing a key role as a left-sided centre back for the defending champions. He has scored two goals in five domestic matches.
"Mosa Lebusa, I think he competes with Tyson in Bafana, he competes with Buhle. He scores goals, stable, he is not slow and he brings the balls up and brings the back, I mean with the headers. He never panics and he passes well. He has got the right age," Mosimane said.
"Probably Molefi Ntseki [Bafana interim coach] will look at it different. I think he competes with Tyson and Buhle. He has played big games now, he has played Champions League with us. He went to Al Ahly with us, he went to Wydad [Casablanca] with us, he has played big games. We bring these players because tell them that when they come to us they will win trophies. Same as Rivaldo, Lebo, Phakamani. We've given them that, they've won trophies with us and they know how it is to play in the Champions League. It's the same as playing a Bafana game, no difference."
