Ademola Lookman is expected to be sidelined for about three weeks after sustaining a knee injury while playing for Nigeria in Friday’s 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Tanzania in Uyo.
The 29-year-old winger picked up the injury in the first half and has been ruled out of Tuesday’s reverse fixture in Zanzibar. He is due to return to Spain on Sunday for further assessment and treatment.
SCORENigeria reported that Lookman is expected to return to action for Atlético Madrid in the new year. The Spanish league is due to begin its break on 20 December.
