Orlando Pirates have received a major boost with midfielder Sihle Nduli making encouraging progress in his recovery from a serious ankle ligament injury that has kept him out of action for several weeks.

The Buccaneers have been without the services of the midfielder since he sustained the injury during a match against AmaZulu in August. His absence has been a setback for head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou, particularly as the Soweto giants continue competing in domestic and continental competitions.

However, the latest developments surrounding Nduli's rehabilitation have provided renewed optimism among Pirates supporters, with the midfielder reportedly reaching another important stage in his recovery.

On September 28, Orlando Pirates announced that Nduli had resumed running on the training field as part of his rehabilitation programme. The update was welcomed by supporters, who have been eagerly waiting for positive news about his fitness.

Ouaddou also previously confirmed that the midfielder had returned to the training ground to continue working towards regaining full fitness.

The latest development is even more encouraging, as Nduli has recently been spotted participating in training alongside his teammates. His involvement in group training suggests that his rehabilitation is progressing well and that he is gradually moving closer to a competitive return.

Nduli's potential comeback would provide Pirates with another valuable option in midfield as they prepare for the demanding schedule ahead. His experience, work rate and ability to contribute to the team's midfield structure could prove important during the remainder of the campaign.

Nevertheless, returning to group training does not automatically mean that he is ready to feature in competitive matches. The Pirates medical and technical teams are expected to continue monitoring his condition before giving him clearance.

The priority will be ensuring that Nduli fully recovers from the injury and avoids any complications that could result in another lengthy absence.

For now, his progress represents encouraging news for the Buccaneers, with supporters hopeful that the midfielder will soon be available for selection.
