Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) side Enyimba FC will be without the service of Victor Mbaoma in their upcoming CAF Champions League (CAF CL) game against Al Merrikh.
Mbaoma who is a key player for the club has been hit with an injury setback ahead of the clash.
He scored Enyimba’s lone goal against Rahimo in the CAF Champions League preliminary match in Ouagadougou last month.
Mbaoma has now been ruled out as he is yet to recover from the knock on his ankle in the second leg game in Aba.
The club in a statement on Tuesday said the 24-year old was unable to train with the club as they prepare for the trip to Omdurman.
The People’s Elephant will play Sudanese giants next week Wednesday in the first leg of the CAF CL at the Al Hilal Stadium as Al Merrikh Stadium is still undergoing renovation.
