Teboho Mokoena is still unavailable and it will be difficult for him to participate in upcoming matches

Mamelodi Sundowns' Head of Medical, Dr. Carl Tabane, has offered a comprehensive update on the club's current injury situation, shedding light on the condition of several first-team players who are currently sidelined.

Teboho Mokoena will not be available for more than one match!

According to Dr. Tabane, midfield linchpin Teboho Mokoena continues to be unavailable for selection as he nurses a persistent niggle that has kept him out of action. The nature of the injury has not been disclosed in detail, but the club's medical staff are reportedly taking a cautious approach to ensure the player's full recovery.

In addition to Mokoena, winger Antonio Van Wyk is also on the sidelines, though Dr. Tabane did not elaborate on the specifics of his setback. The injury list extends further, with Arthur Sales and Keanu Cupido both facing lengthy spells on the treatment table. The duo are understood to be dealing with long-term issues that will require extended rehabilitation periods.

The update comes at a crucial juncture for the Brazilians, who are navigating a demanding fixture schedule across multiple competitions. While the absence of these players presents a challenge, Dr. Tabane's assessment provides the technical team with clarity as they plan their squad rotations in the coming weeks.

Fans will be eager to see Mokoena and Van Wyk return to action, though the medical team's priority remains the long-term fitness of the players rather than rushing them back prematurely. Further updates on their progress are expected in due course.
