Civo United have received a huge boost ahead of a clash against Blue Eagles this Saturday at Nankhaka Stadium as midfield kingpin Dan Msimuko has returned to full action.<\/p>\n
Civo had eight players on the injury list but the return to action of Msimuko means the club still has seven players on the sidelines.<\/p>\n
Msimuko picked up a knee injury in a dull goal-less draw against Be Forward Wanderers at Kamuzu Stadium last month.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have just started training this week and I am fit to play. If the coach gives me a chance against Eagles I will work hard to impress the coach,\u201d Msimuko said.<\/p>\n
Msimuko, a rejected stone at Silver Strikers has turned into a cornerstone for Civo since joining the club in 2015. He was also part of the Standard Bank Cup winning squad last season.<\/p>\n
Civo coach, Milias Jegwe Pofera said the recovery of Msimuko has also boosted the team\u2019s morale ahead of the game.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe is a quality player and it is great news for us. Definitely, we need to have a full strength squad in the league and Msimuko will add depth to the squad,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
In this week\u2019s game against Eagles, Civo are expected to be without vice-captain Blessings Kawanga, Fletcher Bandawe, Innocent Phiri, Ratius Banda, Isaack Msiska and Patience Kalumo due to injuries.<\/p>\n
Civo are on position eight in the TNM Super League with 12 points from nine games whereas Eagles are second with 18 points from eight games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
