The South African Football Association (Safa) is working around the clock to help Club Brugge attacker Percy Tau and Benfica star Thembi Kgatlana return home.
This was confirmed by Safa's communications head Dominic Chimhavi, who said the association got in touch with the majority of South African players abroad to find out what their intentions were amid the coronavirus pandemic.
According to Chimhavi, only Tau and Kgatlana said they wanted to come home and spent time with their families during this difficult time.
