Amakhosi continue being depleted while they train in Europe ahead of the 2024/25 season.

Kaizer Chiefs have released defender Edmilson Dove after he was injured during their pre-season camp in Turkiye.

Following Dove home also due to injury is new signing Bongani Sam who joined the Soweto giants from Orlando Pirates.

The former Orlando Pirates star was pictured in a wheelchair with a moon boot on his left leg.

He was next to Dove who was also in a wheelchair and with a moon boot.

Amakhosi would have wanted to have all their players around for pre-season and have no one left behind in their preparations for the upcoming season.

Having now been hit by injuries, they would hope such a situation will not continue in the new term where they need all their key players available.

Now with Sam having returned home, coach Nasreddine Nabi is left with Reeve Frosler and Happy Mashiane as options at right-back while Thatayaone Ditlhokwe can be roped in as well.

Already, Chiefs went to Turkey without Tebogo Potsane, Dillan Solomons, Mduduzi Mdantsane and George Matlou who are all injured.

The Soweto giants are yet to confirm their friendly match opponents in Turkiye.

This is unlike Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns who have made clear their schedules in their tours of Spain and Austria, respectively.
