The team secured qualification after beating Liberia 2-1 on Tuesday but the national team failed to consist of a single Kaizer Chiefs player.
However despite Amakhosi players missing in the team defender Dillon Solomons believes that the team has quality players who can play for the national team.
Solomons, speaking at the club's media open day at Naturena on Thursday, said that he knows there are quality players available and that they will give coach Hugo Broos a selection headache come next year.
"Its true we didn't have players in the team that did well and qualified for Afcon. But that does not mean we don't have national team players. We have quality players who can be in the national team at anytime," Solomons said to the media.

"And next year when the team prepares for Afcon we will give the coach a headache. He will be looking at players in our team who he can select for the Afcon squad next year. But you know, for now, our (Chiefs') focus is to finish as high as we can in the league and qualify for the CAF Champions League.
"But I promise you we have quality players who the coach can select for the national team. For now, I say congratulations and job well done to the coach for qualifying for the Afcon next year," the former Swallows FC defender concluded.
