Amakhosi players regrouped on Thursday before travelling to Polokwane for a mini-camp as they prepare for the upcoming encounter. The squad is expected to return to Johannesburg on Sunday.

The 21-year-old winger, who joined Chiefs this season, was reportedly absent from the travelling squad.

According to FARPost, Abrahams has yet to report for duty following the team’s short break.

“FARPost also understands from reliable sources that the 21-year-old is yet to report for duty following the squad’s short break. Amakhosi regrouped on Thursday before travelling to Polokwane for a mini-camp, with the team expected to return to Johannesburg on Sunday. However, Abrahams was notably absent from the travelling squad,” the publication reported.

His absence comes amid reports that he has refused to return to the Chiefs camp. Sources reportedly told FARPost that the youngster has made it clear that he no longer wants to play football.

Abrahams joined Kaizer Chiefs on loan from Stellenbosch FC in August. However, he has struggled to secure regular playing time, making only a handful of appearances and scoring just once this season.

His reported absence is another concern for Amakhosi as they prepare for their cup assignment against Sundowns.

Kaizer Chiefs are yet to release an official statement or comment on the reports surrounding the winger’s alleged absence.
