Sharks and Springbok lock Eben Etzebeth has revealed when he hopes to return to action.

The 33-year-old has not played for the Sharks since early December, against the Exeter Chiefs in the Champions Cup, due to recurring concussion symptoms.

But he is back on the training field and told Rapport: “If everything goes well, I will be playing again within the next few weeks.”

Rapport said it was unclear if Etzebeth would be selected for the Sharks’ home match against the Lions on Saturday, 1 March, or given more time to recover.

The second-rower will attend the first Springbok alignment camp of the year in Cape Town from 7-12 March.
