The Nigerian winger was injured in Sevilla's match against Barcelona and is now set for a return to action
Sevilla fans can finally breathe a sigh of relief as Chidera Ejuke, the Nigerian winger who dazzled in the early part of the season, is on the verge of making his comeback.
After nearly three months sidelined with a hamstring injury sustained in a crushing 5-1 loss to Barcelona, Ejuke has resumed full training, aiming to reinvigorate Sevilla’s La Liga campaign.
Ejuke’s road to recovery
Ejuke’s injury, a high-grade hamstring tear, halted a promising run for the former Royal Antwerp star after a fine start to LaLiga life.

With Ruben Vargas recently joining Sevilla’s ranks, Ejuke’s return adds further depth to the squad, and fans eagerly await his on-field reunion with the team, hopeful that his creativity and energy will push Sevilla toward better results in 2024.
Sevilla receive timely Ejuke boost
Ejuke's return couldn’t have come at a better time for Sevilla, who are looking to climb the La Liga standings after a mixed season under manager García Pimienta.

Named Sevilla’s Player of the Month for October, Ejuke’s blistering form before his injury was a highlight of their campaign.
His dynamic play on the left wing provided creativity that was sorely missed during his three-month absence due to injury.
The Nigerian star was welcomed back to training with a guard of honour from his teammates, who undoubtedly eagerly await his return.
Despite returning to group sessions, Sevilla’s medical staff will tread cautiously with his reintroduction, as manager García Pimienta has indicated that Ejuke may not feature competitively until late January or early February.
