Hearts midfielder Abdul Mamane Lawali set to undergo surgery in South Africa
Accra Hearts of Oak will reportedly fly out injured Nigerien midfielder Abdul Mamane Lawali to South Africa for surgery.
The club stated on social media that Lawali is due to fly to South Africa today for his surgery on Friday, November 5 at the Netcare Linksfield Clinic.
“The surgery will be conducted by a team of medical practitioners led by Dr McCready,” Hearts of Oak added in their tweet.
Lawali will remain in South Africa until November 20 before returning to Ghana to continue his rehabilitation.
He joined the Phobians in 2020, having previously been at Sudanese club, Al Merreikh.
The player has been out of action for a long time with an injury he sustained about two seasons ago.
Mamane Lawali got injured on the 4th of January 2021 and has since not received any medical attention leading to friction between the player, his reps and the club.
The player’s agency threatened to report the club to FIFA for apparent neglect by his club since sustaining the injury.
He was due to fly out months ago together with Daniel Kodie but disagreement between the player’s camp and the club foiled the journey.
The player has been living with a discomfort in his injured leg but that will soon be a thing of the past with the problem set to be corrected.
