Ajax Cape Town coach Stanley Menzo says he will not be rushing midfielder Toriq Losper back into action despite the poor form of his side.Ajax are winless in eight games in all competitions in 2017, a run that has seen them dragged back int the relegation mix in the Absa Premiership.

Losper is a player with experience and a proven performer in the South African top-flight, but Menzo says there will be no temptation to bring him back early from six months on the sidelines with a knee injury.

“He is doing well, he took part in a training session with the group last week, but I think we have to take care,” Menzo told his club’s website. “Rather one month too late than one week too early, but he is looking very sharp.

“We will wait, we are taking things step by step – he is on his way. His influence, his personality I think is good, benefits the team,” Menzo added.
