South Africa national team gaffer Gordon Igesund on Tuesday admitted himself in hospital suffering from severe abdominal pains.
Dr Ephraim Nematswerani, who is attending
to coach Igesund, said so far he had detected that the national coach might be
having appendicitis.
“Thorough and further investigations are
being carried out to confirm the diagnosis. We are however, confident that he
will be back on his feet soon. It is nothing too serious,” added Dr
Nematswerani.
Igesund’s Bafana Bafana side were knocked
out in the quarterfinals of the recent Africa Cup of Nations by Eagles of Mali.
Despite calls for his sack by some of his critics, SAFA have stood their ground preferring to stick with their man.
There has even been talk of Igesund having
his current deal extended to the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
His team’s next assignment is at home to Central African Republic in a 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifier next month.
