Ackermann tips Bulls speedster to make mark in Springbok set-up

Bulls coach Johan Ackermann believes Sebastian de Klerk will make a major impact for the Springboks following his national call-up. Head coach Rassie Erasmus named the 26-year-old in South Africa's 37-player squad for the Nations Championship's second leg in November. De Klerk is one of six uncapped players selected, earning his place after an impressive return to form.

Ackermann highlighted De Klerk's physical presence, relentless work rate, and positional versatility across the wing and outside center as key strengths. De Klerk overcame a six-month foot injury earlier this year before gaining selection alongside fellow Bulls teammate Luan Giliomee, giving both players a valuable international opportunity.
