Deportivo Alaves ace Mubarak Wakaso is set to resume training on Wednesday, just a day after undergoing minor surgery on his hand.
The Ghanaian fractured the metacarpus of his right hand during Sunday’s La Liga clash with Osasuna and was originally feared to be facing a long spell out on the sidelines.

Wakaso has been a key part of Alaves’ set-up this season, having featured in all but one of their 12 league games played so far. He started in all those games.
His prompt injury return will also be good news for Ghana who called up the 29-year-old for a 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying double-header against South Africa and Sao Tome and Principe on November 14 and 18, respectively.
