Bafana Bafana of South Africa head coach Hugo Broos has dropped Nigerian-born defender Ime Okon from his final squad for 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
Okon was initially named in South Africa’s 55-man provisional list by Broos two weeks ago.
The Hannover of Germany star however failed to make the final 25-man squad released by the Belgian tactician yesterday.
The 21-year-old has made five appearances for Bafana Bafana.
Okon was born to a Nigerian father and South African mother.
Bafana will begin their AFCON 2025 campaign against Angola on 22 December before facing Egypt four days later and rounding out Group B against Zimbabwe on 29 December.
