Mamelodi Sundowns have confirmed that veteran defender Wayne Arendse will be available for their upcoming Absa Premiership clash against log leader Bidvest Wits.
The 34-year-old recently sustained a suspected concussion during their 1-1 draw against Polokwane City at Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Tuesday.
He suffered a bruised eye and should return to action for their crucial league encounter against the former PSL champions.
Although Arendse is not a regular starter for Sundowns this campaign, the 34-year-old could be in line to make his third consecutive start for the Brazilians.
