Samir Nurkovic out for the next 6 weeks with injury

In other soccer news, Briefly News reported that following knee surgery, Kaizer Chiefs star striker Samir Nurkovic will be out for up to six weeks. Nurkovic had surgery to repair the meniscus in his right knee precisely one week ago and his return date has since been determined.

According to rumours, the Serbian striker will be out of action for at least another few weeks with Kaizer Chiefs. This will be a blow for Kaizer Chiefs, who already have issues in the striking department.
