Title: Kalanga Returns to CSL After Injury

Kalanga, the former South Africa international who was one of the stars of the 2019 World Cup and was also part of the team that won the silver medal in the 2021 African Nations Championship, is returning to CSKA Moscow after his injury sustained during the 2022 FIFA Club World Cup.

The 28-year-old forward returned from his last injury in April, having missed three months due to a calf strain suffered during training. He has been in Russia for several days now, but he is looking forward to returning to his club soon.

"I am excited to be back in the Russian capital," said Kalanga. "I have been training hard with my teammates and I'm confident that I can contribute to our team's success this season."

The return of Kalanga to CSKA will be a welcome addition to their squad as they look to compete for the title next season. The club has already made some strong signings in recent weeks, including the signing of striker Maxim Kovalenko from FC Dynamo Kyiv.

"CSKA has a talented squad with many experienced players who can help us reach our goals," said coach Sergei Hamon. "We believe that Kalanga brings a lot of experience and skills to the team, which will be crucial for us to succeed this season."

Despite being out of action for so long, Kalanga remains a vital member of the team, providing a valuable presence on the pitch. His consistent performances and contributions to the team have earned him a place among the top goal scorers in the league.

"It was tough not playing at the World Cup, but I am grateful for the opportunity to come back to CSKA," said Kalanga. "It feels good to be back on the pitch again and contributing to our team's success."
