Mubilelo Mabizela has admitted that he would not even stop to think about going to the African Nations Cup. Mabizela, who burst onto the Premier League scene with a stunning equaliser against Leicester City on his debut, has said that he will go to the African Nations Cup and captain South Africa, even if it does jeapordise his place in the Spurs side. He said, 'The club know I'm captain and have to go'. He also added his belief that if he leads his country to victory, this will aide his chances of getting back in the reckoning.
