Iñaki Williams Arthuer, a Ghanaian forward for Athletic Bilbao, was injured and was unable to finish the game against Cádiz Club de Fútbol.
On Monday night at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla, Iñaki Williams suffered his first injury since 2016 after scoring the game’s first goal, Athletic Bilbao has not yet lost a La Liga match after a draw and two victories in its previous three games.
The new Ghana Black Stars striker has the record for participating in the most consecutive La Liga games, going more than six years without missing a match while avoiding injury and suspension.
If Iñaki fails to feature in their La Liga match against Espanyol on Sunday at the San Mamés Stadium, his record could end at 236 games in the Spanish League.
An official report by the medical staff of Athletic Bilbao is yet to be communicated, but lots of Ghanaians have been perplexed on social media by the injury sustained by the new striker for the Black Stars.
Others anticipate that he will make a full recovery before Ghana’s scheduled friendlies and, if possible, will make Otto Addo’s final Mundial squad in November 2022.
Notwithstanding this, other Ghanaians on social media are interpreting the spacy and resilient forward’s actions, accusing the team of engaging in juju, given that he hasn’t been injured in a while but did so right away after changing nationalities.
An official announcement from Ghana Football Association indicates that the Black Stars of Ghana will engage in three friendly matches before the world cup in Qatar which kicks start in September 2022.
Brazil will play the Black Stars on September 23, they continue their friendly matches on September 27 against the European team Nicaragua and wrap them up with Switzerland on November 17, 2022, just before the start of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
In a perfect scenario, the Black Stars technical staff would announce a potential roster for the upcoming friendlies and the biggest football tournament, the World Cup in Qatar.
The insightful reporters and editors at www.atspo.com pose a real concern regarding the new striker’s injury: Will he be able to fully recover before the formal announcement of the roster for the friendly and the grand world championship?
