Super Eagles goalkeeper Francis Uzoho is set to spend the remainder of the season on the sidelines following the injury he sustained during the international friendly game against Brazil.

The Super Eagles goalkeeper suffered a freakish accident during the friendly match against Brazil and is set to be out for a long spell.

Uzoho landed awkwardly and twisted his entire lower leg as he attempted to beat the ball away from Brazil midfielder Casemiro.

According to a publication via the club’s sports website Omonoianews, Uzoho alongside the club’s second goalkeeper will be out for a lengthy period.

The Cyprus club is currently in search for a new goalkeeper, who is a free agent to serve as a replacement for the goalkeepers who both sustained a career-threatening injury while on international duty.
