My people, e be like say Ryan Alebiosu don land another injury wahala as him dey try to settle down for Blackburn Rovers. The Nigerian defender wey just come back from AFCON, don collect hamstring injury for match wey dem chop 0-1 from Hull City on Saturday. Chai! E no easy, no be so we sabi football carry come.
Alebiosu na young chap, 24 years old, and this injury na him second match since him return from the Africa Cup of Nations wey no sweet am at all. Last time wey we hear from am, na for last month wey e get cut for leg while him dey play for Super Eagles. Now, on top this hamstring matter, e don come off for half-time against Hull City, meaning e no really fit.
Rovers gaffer, Valérien Ismaël, don talk say dem go check am well-well to see how e dey. E talk say: “He gets hamstring problem, so we need to assess am,”. Wey him dey shout say he dey hopeful say e no go too bad. Him dey pray make the news no be wetin we dey fear, but e mean say we go wait two days before we go yan wetin dey happen.
Even though Alebiosu don only play one match for Nigeria during AFCON, many European clubs dey eye am, like Everton for England, and some teams from Germany and Italy dey follow am closely. Na so football be, one minute na superstar, next minute na injury wahala. But as e be, no be so any transfer go happen before January window close.
Alebiosu don appear for 22 Championship matches this season, and he don score one goal plus two assists. Which means say he dey try for him new club, but this injury fit make una slash him game time, and nobody wan miss action.
