Dove hasn’t played for Chiefs this season after he sustained an injury during Chiefs pre-season tour in Turkey.
With Mozambique having qualified for the upcoming AFCON in Morocco, Dove wants to return in time to return to the national FIFA World Cup qualifiers team for the one next year.
The Chiefs defender explained that he has been recovering well and has started doing some running as his return to action is edging closer and closer.
“By the grace of God, I have been recovering well,” Dove told Chiefs website.

“I have started running on the field, still doing functional work and strengthening.
“Hopefully, I will be soon back training with my teammates, featuring in games, and working myself back into the national team, which is something I will focus on once I’m fully recovered.”
Amakhosi have kept only one clean sheet this season in all competitions, and that was against SuperSport United in the Carling Knockout Cup round of 16.
