Heartland goalkeeper Edwin Nwakamma experienced a heartwarming Christmas surprise as his teammates paid him a special visit at the hospital on Monday, creating a memorable day for the injured player.
Nwakamma, currently on the path to recovery from a severe injury, was delighted by the presence of his teammates who spent quality time with him during the visit. The goalkeeper sustained a leg fracture in a pre-season training session, forcing him to endure a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
Regrettably, the injury has ruled Nwakamma out for the remainder of the season, posing a significant setback for Heartland FC.
Despite the goalkeeper’s absence, the team is gearing up to face Remo Stars in a crucial Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) matchday 16 clash at the Dan Anyiam Stadium on Thursday. Heartland FC, currently situated at the bottom of the league table, is striving to turn their fortunes around in the upcoming fixture.
