Asante Kotoko coach Charles Akonnor has confirmed that high-flying winger Emmanuel Gyamfi will miss Sunday’s ‘must win’ CAF Confederation Cup encounter against Al Hilal due to injury.

The red-hot wideman sustained an injury shortly after scoring in the side’s 3-0 win over Nkana FC on matchday four of the competition at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday.

The injury to the 22-year-old has come as another big blow for the Porcupine Warriors who will be without dependable defender Richard Senanu and dribbling wizard Maxwell Baakoh for the crucial encounter due to injuries.

"I will get the report [on Emmanuel Gyamfi's injury] from the medical team tomorrow...But it doesn't look good" Coach Akonnor told OTEC FM.

"He will not be available for Al Hilal. I have other players to replace him in our next game against the Sudanese side.”

Gyamfi has hit the back of the twine on three ocassions in the side’s CAF Confederation Cup campaign so far.
