Fiacre Ntwari could be on the verge of reclaiming his spot as Kaizer Chiefs' first-choice goalkeeper following recent inconsistent performances from Bruce Bvuma, the Siya crew has been informed.
The Rwandan shot-stopper began the season as the preferred number one under coach Nasreddine Nabi but lost his place after suffering an injury while on international duty.

In his absence, Bvuma stepped up and played a key role in Chiefs' resurgence, delivering some strong performances.
However, his recent form has come under scrutiny, particularly after conceding four goals in the disappointing 4-1 defeat against SuperSport United.
That result left some fans questioning whether a change between the posts is necessary.
With Brandon Peterson on the bench and Ntwari not in the squad for that match, speculation has been growing about potential shifts in the goalkeeping department.
Sources indicate that Ntwari has been working hard in training, impressing the technical team with his commitment and work ethic.
The 25-year-old's efforts could see him recalled to the matchday squad as Chiefs look to steady their defence in both the league and the Nedbank Cup.
"Ntwari has been working hard at training. His return is imminent. He is a hardworking boy. The coach and the technical team have been impressed," said the source.

With Chiefs aiming for redemption and seeking consistency, Nabi faces a crucial decision on whether to restore Ntwari to the starting line-up or persist with Bvuma in the eagerly-awaited encounter.
