Fawaaz Basadien (born 23 December 1996) is a South African soccer player who plays as a defender for Stellenbosch in the Premier Soccer League.
After unassuming spells with Milano United, Cape Town City, Ubuntu Cape Town and Steenberg United, Bahadien was signed by first-tier team Moroka Swallows in 2020. He made his first-tier debut during the 2020-21 South African Premier Division. [1]
After surviving the 2021-22 South African Premier Division with Swallows after a playoff, Basadien moved on to Stellenbosch on a two-year contract. [2] [3] In 2023, Basadien helped Stellenbosch win the Carling Black Label Cup, and was also named in a preliminary Bafana Bafana squad prior to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations. In the middle of the 2023–24 season, there were persistent rumours about Basadien joining Kaizer Chiefs, but instead Basadien prolonged his contract with the Stellies. [4] [5] [6]
