Lyle Foster trains for Bafana Bafana at FNB Stadium on March 20 2023 ahead of their African Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Liberia.Bafana Bafana's emerging star Lyle Foster says he still has to pinch himself about his dream move to English Championship club Burnley in January.
Westerlo were promoted to the Jupiler Pro League where Foster scored eight goals in 21 games in the first half of 2022-23, prompting Belgium defensive legend, former Manchester City star and Burnley manager Vincent Kompany to come knocking. Steven Pienaar moved from Tottenham Hotspur back to top previous club Everton for €5.75m in 2012 and in 1999 Benni McCarthy moved from Ajax Amsterdam to Celta Vigo for €6m.He said his aim is to become the leading striker in South Africa.
“But the thing that kept me going was the grace of God and also the love and passion I have for the game. Foster, who scored a cracking first goal at Burnley in a 3-0 win against Wigan on March 11, said Kompany has shown full confidence in him. “I'm just happy to be working under a legend like him and learning from other people such asCraig Bellamy [Kompany's assistant].”
