Hull City coach provides update on Mohamed Bachir Belloumi's injury

Hull City's manager, Sergiy Rebrov, has clarified the situation regarding Algerian international Mohamed Bachir Belloumi, who missed the recent clash against Arsenal due to muscle issues. The decision to sideline him was taken collectively to prevent a more serious injury. Despite his physical condition, Belloumi is set to join the national team camp, although he will not be able to feature in matches. The medical staff plans to focus on his recovery over the next three weeks, aiming for his return against Brighton. Belloumi has enjoyed a strong season with 3 goals and 2 assists in 10 appearances, leaving his availability for the upcoming AFCON qualifiers against Togo currently in doubt.
