Kaizer Chiefs are continuing their preparations for their highly anticipated Betway Premiership encounter against Mamelodi Sundowns, but the Amakhosi technical team is currently without two players who are away on international duty.
Mfundo Vilakazi and Flávio Silva are reportedly the only Kaizer Chiefs players missing from the club's training sessions as preparations intensify for next Saturday's important fixture against the defending league champions.
The absence of the two players is understood to be temporary, as both are representing their respective countries during the current international period. Their commitments have prevented them from joining their teammates at Naturena, where the squad is working towards being fully prepared for the difficult challenge ahead.
Vilakazi's absence is particularly notable given the attention surrounding the young attacking midfielder and his potential to make an impact for Amakhosi. The talented youngster has continued to attract interest from supporters, who are eager to see him develop into an important figure in the Chiefs squad.
Meanwhile, Silva remains one of the attacking options available to the technical team. His availability could be important as Chiefs look to strengthen their attacking threat against a Sundowns side known for its quality, experience and ability to control matches.
The technical team will be hoping that both players complete their international assignments without picking up injuries or experiencing fitness problems. Their timely return would allow them to rejoin preparations and potentially put themselves in contention for selection.
The meeting with Sundowns represents a significant test for Kaizer Chiefs, who will need to produce a disciplined and organised performance against one of the strongest teams in South African football.
Amakhosi supporters will be closely monitoring developments regarding Vilakazi and Silva as the match approaches. Their return could provide the coaching staff with additional options as Chiefs prepare for what promises to be a demanding Betway Premiership showdown.
