Asante will be out for four weeks with broken arm

Ghanaian midfielder Uriah Asante has suffered a broken arm and will be out for four weeks.

The 19-year-old sustained the injury while in action for Etoile du Sahel in their Premier League loss to US Monastir on Saturday.

Asante was forced off by the 30^th minute after the injury and never returned.

Subsequent tests revealed he has suffered a broken arm and will be out for an estimated four-week period.

The ex Hearts of Oak star has only started playing regularly in the Tunisian top flight following his mega-money move at the beginning of the season.

He expressed his disappointment with his latest injury setback.

“I feel very sad because I thought I could be playing consistently to maintain my form and keep scoring for the club but unfortunately I am injured,” he told Radio Gold.

“I will stick to what the doctors say and I will be out for four weeks. Hopefully I will be better and come back for Etoile.”

Asante has scored two goals in four starts for the Tunisian giants this season.
