Bafana Bafana finally departed for Mexico on Monday night ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which kicks off in nine days' time. However, the squad travelled without its full complement of technical and support staff.
By Monday night, the squad had finally boarded their flight at OR Tambo International Airport, but assistant coach Helman Mkhalele and head of security Mdu Mbatha were still unable to travel because of unresolved visa issues.
SAFA president Danny Jordaan was on hand at the airport and said efforts were continuing to secure the necessary documentation so that both officials could join the team in Mexico.
