Bradley Cross

Bradley Cross is a 25-year-old left-back who has been part of the Kaizer Chiefs setup since 2022, one of South African football's most scrutinised clubs. Playing regularly for Chiefs means operating under intense domestic pressure and media attention, which has helped forge a mentally resilient defender. Cross is a technically tidy full-back who contributes going forward and tracks back diligently, fitting the modern mould of an attacking-minded wide defender. Still in his mid-twenties, he is at the right age to be entering his peak years, and his consistent PSL appearances have made him a credible option in the Bafana Bafana defensive setup.
