Kaizer Chiefs coach Arthur Zwane has provided a brief update on his sidelined players ahead of this weekend's match against SuperSport United.
Chiefs were without no fewer than five players for last weekend's 1-1 draw against Marumo Gallants with the likes of Siyabonga Ngezana, Cole Alexander, Khama Billiat and Reeve Frosler all out, and Nkosingiphile Ngcobo granted a leave of absence following a family bereavement.
Head coach Arthur Zwane will be hoping to have his full contingent back when his side welcomes SuperSport United to the FNB Stadium on Saturday but admits that he will only have a clearer picture of his players' availability as the week draws on.

"We did not have several guys [for the match against Gallants] including Siyabonga Ngezana, Cole Alexander, Khama Billiat, Reeve Frosler and Nkosingiphile Ngcobo available for selection due to an assortment of reasons," Zwane told the club's website.
"We will use the next few days to see which of the guys are able to return as we need everyone so we can plan accordingly for all the matches."
The Amakhosi have endured a difficult start to the season and currently occupy 14th position in the DStv Premiership standings with eight points from their opening seven matches, and having won only twice in the competition thus far.
