Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos has provided an update on the injury status of Mosa Lebusa Mudau, confirming that the defender is still recovering from a long-term injury. Broos also revealed that four other players are struggling with niggles, which could impact the team’s preparations for upcoming matches.
What happened is that Mudau suffered an injury earlier this year, which has kept him sidelined for several months. Despite initial hopes of a speedy recovery, Broos has confirmed that Mudau is still a way off from returning to full fitness.
In the big picture, Mudau’s continued absence is a significant blow to Bafana Bafana’s defensive options. His experience and leadership qualities are sorely missed, and Broos will be hoping for a speedy recovery to bolster his squad.
As for what’s next, Broos will be monitoring the fitness of his players closely, with four others struggling with niggles. The coach will be hoping that these injuries are minor and that his players can recover quickly, ahead of crucial upcoming matches. With the team’s preparations already disrupted by Mudau’s injury, Broos will be keen to avoid any further setbacks.
