Kaizer Chiefs defender Dillan Solomons has given an update on his injury and when he could be back on the pitch.
The former Moroka Swallows defender has had long-term injury challenges at the club since the arrival of the new coach Nasreddine Nabi.
A shoulder injury sustained at the beginning of the season kept right-back on the sidelines for a period.
Upon recovering from this setback, he made his return to the pitch in a game against Royal AM. He got injured during the match.
Solomons revealed his frustration, as he viewed this match as a crucial opportunity to impress the coaching staff and secure a regular starting berth in the team.
Speaking with the media during the Nedbank Cup Last 16 draw on Monday, the 28-year-old Solomons said he now feels “strong and healthy”. He is hopeful of resuming his playing duties in the near future.

SOLOMONS ON INJURY CHALLENGES & WHEN HE COULD BE BACK
“I am doing well. Obviously, it's been a tricky time for me. I am in full training now and I am feeling good and healthy,” said
“It's just a bit of the match fitness that the coaches are worried about, but hopefully soon I will be back on the field.
“At the start of the season I was out with a shoulder injury and then coming back, it felt really good. And then getting that opportunity against Royal AM in Polokwane.
“I won't forget it because it was a game to try and put myself out there for the coaches and it didn't happen. The hamstring just went. It was frustrating, but I took it as a challenge and to get back was not easy.
“But I am ready now. I am strong and healthy and hopefully when I get back I can continue where I left off.”
This season Solomons has only played three matches across all competitions this season – two in the Betway Premiership and one in the Carling Knockout Cup.
