While former Kaizer Chiefs star Lebogang Manyama's career appears to be up in the air, his agent Maimane Phiri is confident the 2017 Premier Soccer League (PSL) Player of the Season will bounce back strongly soon.

Manyama has been without a club since being released by Chiefs in a major clear-out at the end of last season.

That has raised doubts on whether, given his age and six months spent out of the game, Manyama will return to the field. “Injuries are part of football,” Phiri told TimesLIVE. “Some people can spend two years without playing and when they heal they play again.“Injuries are different and it depends on how we treat them and how our bodies react to treatment. He will be fine.”

“The important thing for now is not about getting a team to play for, but for him to heal first — it is no use getting a team while he hasn’t healed,” Phiri said.
