Bafana Bafana 'not a tougher job than Cameroon' for Broos

Hugo Broos says he has “always wanted” to be Bafana Bafana coach and believes he has what it takes to deliver the desired upturn in results.

Broos was announced as the new South Africa coach on Wednesday on a five-year deal as he returns to work in Africa for the first since he was fired as Cameroon coach in December 2017.

Despite guiding the Indomitable to the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations title, failure to help them qualify for the 2018 Fifa World Cup cost him his job after 24 games in charge.

“This is something I always wanted, I just waited for a good opportunity,” Broos told Kick442.
