Orlando Pirates have confirmed that midfielder Musa Nyatama is expected to make a full return to fitness within two to three weeks following his rehabilitation.

The 30-year-old was stretchered off the field during Amakhosi’s 1-1 draw with Platinum Stars on 18 October after picking up a grade 1 strain to the quad.

The Buccaneers’ medical team revealed that Nyatama’s injury is not serious, and the midfielder is expected to return within two to three weeks following his rehabilitation.

Meanwhile, Pirates have been boosted after Gladwin Shitolo returned to full training, while Happy Jele and Mthokozisi Dube are well on the road to recovery with their respective injuries.
