The agent of Kaizer Chiefs defender Sifiso Hlanti, Sizwe Ntshangase, has revealed that he doesn’t see his client playing again this season despite the defender returning to training.

The defender has been out since suffering a long-term Achilles injury that effectively ended his season months ago after playing only a handful of game for the Soweto giants.

According to his agent Ntshangase, the defender has returned to training but doesn’t think he will make a return to action this season.

“With this type of injury, it’s not easy to make a swift comeback,” Ntshangase told KickOff.

“Remember it’s an Achilles injury which needed to be operated on that we’re talking about here.

“But at the moment he is training, with Kaizer Chiefs issuing an update on his situation in the past few weeks.

“He has been that much closer to playing, but is doing light training as we speak, he can run with the ball,

“But then again, I don’t see him featuring this season. But it depends on him as our bodies are all unique, so I can’t determine if his season is already over.

“But at the moment, he is doing well with his rehab, but is training alone, so won’t be featuring in any games soon.”
