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.
