Ghana forward Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is nearing a return to action after a six-month layoff due to an ACL injury. The winger suffered the injury during a 2025 AFCON qualifier against Angola while on international duty. Despite the setback, Issahaku has been working hard on his rehabilitation and is optimistic about his return. “I’ve been working so hard… I’ll be ready before pre-season,” he told Leicester City’s media.
Issahaku expressed his eagerness to get back on the field, saying, “I can’t wait to be back on the field, running again, fighting for the badge as always.” The Ghanaian had a promising start to his Premier League career, providing an assist on the opening night and ranking among the top five dribblers in the league before his injury.
His absence has coincided with Leicester City’s struggles, which ultimately led to their relegation to the Championship. Issahaku’s return will be crucial for the team’s success, and he seems determined to make a strong comeback.
