The story

Bradley Cross is a left-footed South African centre-back who plays for Kaizer Chiefs and was selected for South Africa's 2026 FIFA World Cup squad. He is noted for his ability to build from the back.

Cross came through youth structures in South Africa before a stint with Newcastle United in England (2020–2022), where he did not make a senior appearance. He returned to South Africa with spells at Maritzburg United and Golden Arrows before joining Kaizer Chiefs in late 2024.

He has made over 40 appearances for Kaizer Chiefs and earned his first senior international cap on 29 May 2026 against Nicaragua, going on to be named in South Africa's squad for the 2026 World Cup.
