Johannesburg - Bafana Bafana coach Carlos Alberto Parreira is working in the country without a work permit, the Johannesburg daily, Sowetan, reported on Friday.

The law requires every foreigner to obtain a work permit before taking up employment.

Parreira is in South Africa on a visitor's visa.

Safa spokesperson Morio Sanyane confirmed that Parreira did not have a work permit. "Not yet," he said.

But Sanyane said the process of getting Parreira a permit was under way.

He said the application for the coach's permit had been delayed by the necessity to obtain international clearances before an application could be made.

Home Affairs confirmed that the coach did not have a work permit, but said that it had allowed the national Sports Department to put him to work on a visitor's permit.
