Flash developments are taking place at Trabzonspor before the second half of the season. Anthony Nwakaeme, who was injured at the beginning of the season and had his license frozen due to foreign player quota restrictions, is preparing to return to the field in January. It has been learned that the 36-year-old star is determined to stay and has no thoughts of leaving.
In the first week of the league, it was determined that Nwakaeme, who was injured in the match against Kocaelispor, had a tear in his left thigh hamstring and tendon, and as a result, the star footballer's license was suspended.
The Nigerian player, who has completed his treatment process, continues to work with a special program and aims to be on the field in the match against Kocaelispor, which is the first match of the second half.
THE STAR PLAYER DOES NOT WANT TO LEAVE
The experienced footballer had supported his teammates during away games even during his injury period. It is reported that both Nwakaeme's family and he himself want to stay in Trabzon and are determined to contribute to the team with his performance.
ROSTER CRISIS: VISCA AND SIKAN ARE THE FIRST CANDIDATES
Head coach Fatih Tekke wants to see Nwakaeme in the squad due to his attacking diversity and experience. However, the foreign quota at Trabzonspor is full.
In order for Nwakaeme's license to be issued, at least one foreign player will need to be released.
Additionally, the number of players that need to be sent away may increase due to the management's plans for reinforcements during the mid-season transfer period.
Possible players to be sent away:
- Edin Visca
- Denis Sikan
- (On loan) Muçi may also be considered for release
TEKKE'S ATTACK PLAN
It is known that Fatih Tekke wants to create a more creative structure in the attack line with Nwakaeme. In the coming weeks, both the squad will take shape and the status of new transfers will become clear in the burgundy-blue team.
