Mudau was substituted at halftime during the goalless draw against Tunisia on Wednesday evening in the final group E match at the Amadou Gon Coulibaly Stadium in Korhogo, raising concerns about his ankle.

With the 28-year old starting as a right back in all of Bafana Bafana's group E matches, Broos acknowledged the worrying developments on Mudau's injury.

It’s an ankle injury and the medical team will see him on Thursday and make a good analysis of his injury and then maybe we can decide if he should be ready for next week," Broos said.

Mudau’s potential absence in next week's encounter would be a significant blow to Bafana Bafana who will likely turn to Thapelo Morena at right-back or Nyiko Mobbie, who came in for the Mamelodi Sundowns defender.

Kick-off at the Stade de San Pédro Stadium next week Tuesday is 22:00 pm.
