Black Stars winger, Kamaldeen Sulemana, is expected to miss the start of the 2024-2025 English Premier League season.
The 22 year old is reported injured and would likely miss Southampton’s opening game of the season on Saturday, August 17 against Newcastle at the St. James’ Park.
Sulemana picked up an undisclosed injury at the time of writing in Southampton’s 2-0 loss to Oxford United and Southampton manager Martin Russell spoke about Sulemana’s situation.
“Kamaldeen will be out for three weeks” Russell stated after the loss with the news coming ahead of Southampton’s preseason game against Lazio on Wednesday, August 9.
Southampton will face Spanish La Liga team Getafe on Saturday, August 10, following their match against Lazio, before kicking off their new Premier League season against Newcastle.
The Saints are set to make their return to the Premier League after being relegated at the end of the 2022-2023 season.
This latest update comes amid a series of injury issues for Sulemana, who has struggled with health problems during his time with both French Ligue 1 club Stade Rennes and Southampton.
Additionally, Southampton is reportedly interested in acquiring Ghanaian-British winger Jesurun Rak-Sakyi from Crystal Palace.
