Langelihle Phili injury blow for Kaizer Chiefs barely a month after joining Amakhosi

He arrived as the Kaizer Chiefs' marquee signing. He made an immediate impression with some good performances. He scored for Amakhosi in a high profile game against Mamelodi Sundowns to give glimpses of a things to come.

But that has come to an crashing end like a broken promise as Chiefs new signing Langelihle Phili is out for two months. He missed last night's 2-2 draw against Richards Bay in a Betway Premiership match in Kwa-Zulu Natal.

“Phili is the bad news of this week, he got injured,” said da Cruz last night.

“He will be out around eight weeks. But we trust in our available players.”
