Kaizer Chiefs have confirmed a significant setback ahead of their crucial Premier Soccer League (PSL) clash against Mamelodi Sundowns: influential midfielder Gaston Sirino will be suspended for the highly anticipated match at the Lucas Masterpieces Moripe Stadium this Saturday.

The news comes as a major blow to the Soweto giants, who are looking to recover from a recent 4-1 thrashing by SuperSport United. Sirino’s suspension stems from a red card he received during that defeat, leaving a gaping hole in the Chiefs’ midfield.

The 34-year-old Uruguayan, who made a high-profile move from Sundowns to Chiefs at the start of the season, has quickly become a key figure for Amakhosi.

With three goals and five assists in 15 appearances across all competitions, his creativity and experience will be sorely missed.

“Chiefs will be without Gaston Sirino in this match after he picked up a red card in Amakhosi’s last match, against SuperSport United,” the club officially announced on their website.

This suspension couldn’t have come at a worse time for Chiefs, who are currently languishing in eighth place in the PSL standings with 25 points from 18 matches.

Head coach Nasreddine Nabi, who has faced increasing pressure from fans, has pleaded for patience as he attempts to steer the team back on course.

“We will be without a very important player. It is a tough situation, but we have to find a solution,” a source close to the club relayed regarding Nabi’s reaction.

The timing of the suspension adds another layer of intrigue to the already charged atmosphere surrounding the match.

Sirino’s history with Sundowns, where he was a pivotal player for several seasons, has fueled speculation and anticipation among fans.

Meanwhile, Mamelodi Sundowns are riding high at the top of the PSL table with 48 points from 18 matches.

The Tshwane giants, who have dominated South African football for over a decade, are aiming for an unprecedented eighth consecutive league title.

They will be looking to secure a double over Chiefs, having already defeated them 2-1 in the first-round fixture.

The clash is expected to draw a massive crowd, with both sets of fans eager to witness a showdown between two of South Africa’s most iconic clubs.

Sundowns will be confident of extending their lead at the top, while Chiefs will be desperate to prove they can compete without their star midfielder.

Adding to the pre-match buzz, Kaizer Chiefs have been promoting their 55th anniversary celebrations in conjunction with Toyota South Africa, encouraging fans to share what “Amakhosi” means to them for a chance to win exclusive prizes.
