The highly talented forward, whose acquisition came at a substantial cost from Marumo Gallants, has been absent from the last three matches.
Lesiba Nku’s transfer to Mamelodi Sundowns marked a momentous chapter for both the player and the club.
Reportedly, Sundowns secured his services for a hefty sum of around R5 million following Gallants’ relegation from top-tier football.
Nku’s promising start with Sundowns took a regrettable turn during the MTN8 semifinal second leg clash against Kaizer Chiefs.
He sustained an injury in less than ten minutes after entering the game as a substitute in the second half, raising concerns among both fans and the club about his condition.

After his injury, Nku undertook a demanding path to rehabilitation and recovery. With unwavering commitment, both the club’s medical team and Nku himself worked tirelessly to expedite his return to training and competitive football.

Recent updates now strongly suggest that Nku’s comeback to the field is on the horizon.
The versatile attacker was recently seen participating in training sessions with his teammates at Chloorkop, despite several of them being away on international assignments.
This encouraging development points to his possible inclusion in the squad for the forthcoming match following the international break.”
