Bnei Yehuda striker Jude Nworuh will spend a minimum of two weeks on the sidelines due to a knee injury, the player has revealed.

Thus, the 26 - year - old will miss Saturday’s Premier League tie against Beitar Jerusalem, the third game in a row he would not be involved for the Lions, having missed the last two matches with Maccabi Petah Tikva and Ironi Kiryat Shmona.

“I have a knock on my knee, I have been out for a week now and I tried to resume training yesterday and today but I could not, ” Nworuh told allnigeriasoccer.com from Tel Aviv on New Year’s Day.

“I won’t be able to play tomorrow for my team and I think it’ll take two to three weeks before I’ll be fine again.”

Nworuh has registered his name on the score sheet four times in the league from nine appearances.
