South African club Orlando Pirates has confirmed that Nigerian defender Olisa Ndah is making significant progress in his recovery from a tibia injury, according to Nigeriafootball.ng.

Ndah has been sidelined since September after sustaining the injury while playing for the Buccaneers. His absence has kept him out of several key matches, including the MTN8 final against Stellenbosch FC.

The club’s medical team shared an update on the recovery status of injured players on their official website, revealing that the 24-year-old defender is now nearing a return to full fitness.
