Injury Knocks Out Joel Obi
Injury-troubled Nigerian international Joel Obi will miss Torino’s next game as he was asked to rest for few days after a minor injury discovered by the medical staff of the Italian Serie A club.
The former Parma midfielder underwent a test Tuesday afternoon and they found a strain in his right thigh, which may need up to five days to clear.
The Nigeria star is now likely to miss his team’s trip to Udinese.
Obi’s career has been plagued by a series of injuries since his time at Inter Milan, where he broke out from the youth ranks.
But recently the player declared his injury problems were now behind him after he returned from another injury layoff.
