Ghanaian midfielder Majeed Ashimeru is grappling with a new injury setback that has the potential to keep him on the sidelines for a matter of weeks.

While the precise nature of the injury remains veiled in uncertainty, indications point to its occurrence during Anderlecht's inaugural fixture of the season against Union SG in the Belgian Pro League on July 28.

Ashimeru actively participated in the match for a duration of 81 minutes, notwithstanding Anderlecht's unfortunate defeat.

Regrettably, his omission from the subsequent fixture last Saturday served as a confirmation of the injury's impact on his immediate availability.

The midfielder had aspired to commence the new season on a robust note, sidestepping the injury concerns that had beset him in the preceding season.

Despite his determination, it appears that he has encountered an early-season setback.

In the preceding season, Ashimeru grappled with injury hurdles; nevertheless, his performances remained commendable.

As he embarks on the current campaign, his fervent desire to remain injury-free has met an unforeseen challenge.

The timing of this setback could potentially impede his participation in Ghana's final 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match against Central African Republic, scheduled for September 7.

Amidst this obstacle, Ashimeru's focus will undoubtedly center on a steady recuperation trajectory and a prompt return to the pitch.

The midfielder's resolute determination will be pivotal in surmounting this injury hurdle and resuming his contributions to Anderlecht's pursuit of success.
