Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi wants the famed Transnet/Safa School of Excellence to be rescued from the doldrums.

Late last year, Transnet informed the South African Football Association it would no longer provide financial support to the school that produced exceptional players including Steven Pienaar, Daine Klate and Bernard Parker.Lesufi, who is passionate about sport and played a crucial role in the revival of DStv Premiership team Swallows FC, said the school has to be rescued, repurposed and repackaged.“What disappointed me the most is that I learned about it in the media.

“But I am excited. I spoke to Safa and [Caf president Patrice] Motsepe and they are willing to come on board. We will go to a session and it will be rescued.It has been many years since the school produced a word-class footballer and reports are widespread of the decline of the institution founded in the 1990s.“It pains me to have a huge company like Transnet pulling out of the School of Excellence We are trying very hard to rescue the school.
