Safa CEO Lydia Monyepao and president Danny Jordaan with national team coaches Desiree Ellis and the former Hugo Broos, whos name continue to haunt the association as they look to appoint his successor in Pitso Mosimane.

Minister of Sports, Arts and Culture Gayton McKenzie stepped in to reveal Hugo Broos’ R1.4 million monthly salary after SAFA CEO Lydia Monyepao refused to disclose the figure to Parliament on Tuesday.

The heated exchange unfolded during a Portfolio Committee on Sport, Arts and Culture meeting convened to scrutinise SAFA’s handling of Bafana Bafana’s 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign and the visa controversy that delayed the team’s departure for Mexico.

Economic Freedom Fighters MP Eugene Mthethwa repeatedly pressed Monyepao for the exact amount Broos earned during his five-year tenure as Bafana coach.

Monyepao refused, maintaining that the information was confidential and contained within the terms of Broos’ contract.
