Warriors defender Gerald Takwara is set to undergo operation on his shoulder today in Johannesburg.
Takwara is expected to be out for four to six weeks.
The defender suffered an injury during Friday’s 2025 AFCON qualifier against Kenya at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane.
The injury was sustained when Takwara attempted a very low header to clear a shot at goal by the Kenyans, who grabbed their equaliser in the melee.
He was stretchered off with Godknows Murwira taking over.
Takwara will not travel to Cameroon will the rest of the team for Tuesday’s final qualifier.
Instead, he will travel direct to his base after today’s operation.
