MZANSI’S national Under-23 coach David Notoane wants the poster boy of South African football Percy Tau to be a part of his Olympic squad.

Notoane says if Egypt is taking Mo Salah to the Games, why should Young Bafana leave their most popular and influential footballer behind? 

 Notoane confirmed that he is intending to fill a left back position and Tau as part of his three over-age players for the Olympic Games starting in Tokyo, Japan from 24 July until 9 August. 

Notoane says Tau, who plays for Club Brugge in the Belgian league, is the hottest property in local football. He is crossing his fingers that he will be released by his club as the Olympic Games does not fall under the Fifa international calendar.

Notoane said: “If Egypt wants Mo Salah to boost their squad, why should we leave Tau behind. If he is fit and available, we will take him to Japan.  Let’s face it, Tau is an important player for club and country, and it would be good for the youngsters to have him in the team.”
