Springbok injury update: Star player could be recalled soon!
The Springboks have received a much-needed boost on the injury front as a young World Cup winner could soon return to the squad.

When the Springboks unveiled their latest 39-man squad, it demonstrated the depth in South African rugby, but there are still a host of star players who are not available due to injury.

In total, the Springboks listed eight players who were ruled out of contention for selection due to injury, namely Steven Kitshoff (prop), Jean Kleyn, Lood de Jager (both locks), Cameron Hanekom (flanker), Jaden Hendrikse (scrumhalf), Henco van Wyk (centre), Canan Moodie and Damian Willemse (both utility backs).

However, there has been some good news in the latest injury updated shared by the Springboks.

For one, talented wing Canan Moodie, who had surgery to repair a fractured finger earlier this month, could also make a welcome return to the national team in the next few weeks.
