Midfielder, Siphiwe Tshabalala will be assessed later this week after he was taken off the field on a stretcher in the second half of the African Cup of Nations against Sierra Lone in Freetown on Sunday 10th October 2010.

Team Physio, Dave Milner told kaizerchiefs.com on Tuesday morning that 'Nto tse Monate' as Tshabalala is affectionately known had an MRI scan that was done by the national team medical team.

"Tshabalala did not train with the team today due to the knock on his left hip.

We are busy assessing him and we will again assess him later this week to determine the extent of his injury," revealed Milner.
