Radebe was speaking on the sidelines of the Bafana class of 1996 being inducted into Sun International/Samsung South African Hall of Fame at Sun City in Rustenburg on Sunday night.

The 48-year-old former Bafana captain also revealed that he would welcome a chance to coach at any team but under certain conditions.
“There is lot that goes into being a coach and the most important is the set-up in the team. When we won the Afcon everyone was pulling in the same direction.
“If the conditions are good for me to succeed as a coach I would take the chance,” he said.
