Esperance Sportive de Tunis (EST) has confirmed that Mohamed Ali Ben Hammouda, one of its key strikers, will be sidelined for a month due to injury. The announcement was made by the club’s management on Thursday, shedding light on the extent of Hammouda’s unavailability.
The injury details and the duration of Hammouda’s absence have now been disclosed, revealing that the Tunisian forward will be unable to participate in matches for the next four weeks.
This setback forces EST to navigate critical fixtures without the contribution of one of their top attacking talents.
Hammouda sustained the injury during the first day of the Playoffs, prompting his premature exit from the pitch during EST’s triumphant 2-0 victory against the African Club.
Medical assessments subsequently revealed a strain of the external knee ligament, necessitating Hammouda’s withdrawal from competitive action for the foreseeable future.
As Hammouda undergoes treatment and rehabilitation, he will remain on the sidelines, supporting his team from a distance as they compete in upcoming matches.
His absence poses a significant challenge for EST, as they seek to maintain their competitive edge in domestic and continental competitions.
The loss of Hammouda, known for his prowess in front of goal, presents a test of depth and resilience for Esperance Sportive de Tunis.
The club’s management and coaching staff will now focus on strategies to compensate for his absence and ensure continued success on the field during his recovery period.
With Hammouda’s return to action anticipated in the coming weeks, EST supporters eagerly await his comeback and hope for a swift recovery that will see him back in contention to contribute to the team’s aspirations in the Tunisian league and beyond.
