KEAGAN DOLLY RETURNS FOR KAIZER CHIEFS

Having missed the opening months of the 2023/24 season, Dolly has revealed that staying hopeful for five months would have been impossible if he was not experienced and without a family.

“It was a difficult five months – just seeing the boys play, especially in the first few games of the season, when we were doing so well, you want to be a part of that,” said Dolly, as per SABC Sport.

“You want to play, as a player, but I think with my experience, having previous injuries when I was in France as well, I had quite a bit of injuries.
