Leading agents are still scrambling to get footage of Premier Soccer League matches to satisfy interest in local players abroad. This, many of them have told Soccer Laduma, could hurt any chances of Bafana Bafana players who caught the eye of international scouts having this attention explored further.

Due to the PSL still not giving the greenlight and approving access for video service company Wyscout, owned by American giants Hudl, since the season kicked off in August last year, the players are not being seen.

“It’s a huge problem. We have clubs in the MLS, France and Belgium enquiring about some of the players they have been impressed with, but can’t take the conversation forward. With no footage of full matches, there’s no way forward,” one of the agents with a strong network in Europe explained.
