Erasmus moves past Mashaba beef

By Phakaaathi Reporter

The striker fell out with Mashaba when the former Orlando Pirates forward didn’t honour a national team call-up as a replacement for Tokelo Rantie for a match against Gambia.

“I’m no back-up player,” tweeted Erasmus at the time.

Erasmus then vowed to return to the national team only when Bafana Bafana have a new coach.

“For me, like I said, it is all in the past and I’m here to focus on the present and try to structure the future to make sure it looks right,” said Erasmus.

“Everybody knows the reason. I don’t need to speak about the reason I was left out.”

The Stade Rennais F.C attacker has 11 Bafana Bafana caps and has scored one goal for the national team.
