Victor Osimhen, a forward for the Super Eagles and Napoli, is expected to miss a month of activity with a thigh injury.
Following an injury, the attacker was replaced in Napoli's 4-1 victory over Liverpool on Wednesday.
The club announced that the Nigerian forward had injured his right femoral bicep in a statement.
The injury may keep the striker out of action for more than a month.
Osimhen has played six times for the Partonopei in all competitions, making two goals in those games.
He won't play against Spezia this coming weekend and is also not anticipated to participate in this month's international break.
