SuperSport United coach Gavin Hunt has pleaded with PSL teams to adopt the Egyptian Premier League rule of giving young goalkeepers a chance in the country.
Hunt gave Ronwen Williams his breakout debut at Matsatsantsa who has since established himself as Mamelodi Sundowns and Bafana Bafana’s first choice.
The four-time Betway Premiership winning coach also suggested that maybe the rule should be changed, similar to the Egyptian Premier League rule if South Africa is to produce more goalkeepers.

“I know the truth in that answer, you want the Egyptian League, no foreign goalkeeper,” Hunt told the media.

“It is very difficult if you look at teams; there’s a lot of foreign goalkeepers around maybe the rules have to be changed, or the clubs need to give opportunities to the local goalkeeper if there is available.
“It is something we look very closely in the starting which we did with Ronwen when he came as a 12-year-old to us and he got his debut, we gonna play five games and take the decision from there.
“Moeneeb Josephs I did it with him, Wendell Robinson top goalkeeper,” Hunt added.
