Attacker Rodney Michael will not be part of Sierra Leone next week after he suffered a recurring hamstring injury in preparation for a club match scheduled for this weekend.
During a training session for this weekend’s match, Rodney suffered a recurring hamstring injury and has been advised by the club medical team to withdraw from the national and club games due in the next ten days.
Rodney had recovered and was part of the club squad for last week’s games and was looking forward to playing for his Montenegrin side FC Monar Bar this weekend and Leone Stars games against Sao Tome.
Leone Stars Head Coach has been informed of the latest development.
Micheal, 23, was named in the Sierra Leone squad for next week’s crucial Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against São Tomé and Príncipe in Morocco.
Sierra Leone is billed to face Sao Tomé and Principe twice on Wednesday, 22 March and Sunday, 26 March, with both games taking place at the Adrar Stadium in Agadir, Morocco.
