Kaizer Chiefs fans can breathe a sigh of relief ahead of their Carling Knockout clash against SuperSport United, this after head coach Nasreddine Nabi confirmed the availability of Gaston Sirino.
By his own admission, Nabi says that the Uruguayan’s impact was missed in their CUFA Cup clash against Marumo Gallants last weekend.

The early indications are that Nabi won’t have to deal with a similar type of conundrum against Matsatsantsa, as Sirino is expected to feature in Saturday’s clash.
Nabi provided an update at the Carling Knockout press conference in Johannesburg on Thursday.
“He is not fully recovered (from the abductor muscle injury), but we will try and count on him in the next game, maybe not the 90 minutes, but we will try,” Nabi told the media.
Sirino has been crucial for Chiefs since joining at the start of the season and has chipped in with three goal contributions in his first three matches for the club.
