John Utaka To Spend At Least Two Weeks On The Sidelines
Published: September 18, 2014
Sivasspor forward John Utaka is set to spend at least two weeks on the sidelines due to a muscle tear in his left leg.
The Nigeria international did not take part in full training on Wednesday, and jogged around the pitch instead, alongside ex Golden Eaglet striker Macauley Chrisantus, who is also recovering from injury.
The 32 - year - old sat out Sivasspor’s 2 - 2 draw with Akhisar Belediyespor , raising suspicion that he might not be physically fit.
The ex Portsmouth and Rennes man scored in the opening round of the Turkish Super Lig, hitting the back of the net after 52 minutes in the 2 - 1 loss to Gaziantepspor.
John Utaka comes off contract with Sivasspor at the end of the current season.
