Nigerian goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi is one yellow card away from suspension as Amakhosi head into Saturday’s Telkom Knockout clash against Cape Town City.
Amakhosi’s first-choice goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune is also out injured.
Middendorp, however, believes that in Bruce Bvuma, he has a capable replacement for Khune and Akpeyi.
“I think we have built up Bruce as a potential goalkeeper, Bontle Molefe is young and definitely shouldn’t be the one to be brought in but with Bruce, he is a national team goalkeeper.
“We have Bruce if it happens (Akpeyi’s suspension) but I will not highlight it too much,” said Middendorp.
