Sameehg Doutie has set his sight on making it into the 2010 Bafana Bafana squad.
The 20-year-old has been in fine form for Ajax Cape Town starting eight matches and coming on as a substitute twice.
He told Football365.co.za: "My goal is to win the league with Ajax Cape Town and hopefully be in the 2010 World Cup squad.
"I think it's good that Carlos Parreira is back. As you can see there are youngsters in the squad, that's a bright future especially for us. Who knows we might be next.
"But as you can see we are second on the log and SuperSport is first but there are no players from our squad being called up - that's the downfall."
The Urban Warriors have been in good fettle this season, especially on the road, with only one defeat away from the Cape.
Doutie still believes Ajax have what it takes to lift the title.
He said: "I think we will do well, because we have a big squad. Everyone is doing their part, if one player is injured there is another player who can come in and fit into his space so I don't think we are going to have a problem. We have been working hard, the results have to pay in at the end of the day.
"We are second in the log behind the leaders SuperSport. We just need to keep going and stay there in the top two. Who knows we might finish at the top of the log at the end of the season."
The side has had three coaches so far this term with Muhsin Ertugral and Jan Pruijn both making way for Foppe de Haan.
Doutie reckons the squad needs to do their job no matter who is in charge.
"It hasn't affected the players. We have to adjust to what the new coach always wants. It has been difficult, but that is part of football you got to keep going. It is like your job if another new boss comes in you just have to do your job all the time," he concluded.
