Chansa out with injury for eight weeks

Orlando Pirates will be without Zambian international midfielder Isaac Chansa for their Carling Black Label Cup against Kaizer Chiefs due to injury.

The club has announced on its website.

Chansa has been ruled out for a period of six-to-eight weeks due to an ankle injury he sustained in Pirates’ 1-all draw against Tottenham Hotspur in the Vodacom Challenge on July 19.

Club Physiotherapist John Williams says Chansa will not be taking any part in Saturday’s match against Chiefs.

He adds that the Chipolopolo Midfielder is out with an ankle injury which he sustained in the club’s first match against Spurs in Nelspruit.

The results from the scan suggest he will miss about eight weeks.

The creative Zambian made 17 appearances for Pirates last season and scored eight goals. He said expressed his disappointment at the injury.
