Mohamed Zidan's teammate striker Guerrero
has been withdrawn from Peru squad for the matches versus
Paraguay and Chile because of an injury. The extent
of injury is not yet known but the player maynot be
able to feature versus Stuttgart After the end of the
international break.
Peruvian striker Guerrero has been on
a lethal form since the start of this season and this
resulted in Egyptian striker Zidan losing his starting
spot for the 23 year old Peruvian international.
Zidan started as regular for HSV but he
couldn't score in the few opening games of the season
and after a 2-1 away loss against Bochum, the coach
Huub Stevens decided to make changes in attack and he
introduced Guerrero as a lone striker instead of Zidan.
The Peruvian managed to prove himself
and established himself as a first team regular and
Zizou has been struggling lately to see first team action.
HSV's club website reported a few hours
ago that the Peruvian international suffered a groin
injury and accordingly, he was withdrawn from the Peru
squad which will face Paraguay and Chile on the 13th
and 17th of October respectively.
The extent of Guerrero' injury is not confirmed yet and
it is unknown if he will be able to feature versus Stuttgart
after the end of the international break or not.
On the other hand, Egyptian striker Zidan is
one of two of the Egyptians abroad who were called to the
Egyptian team who will face Botswana on the 13th of October.
Hopefully, the coming weeks will be more fruitful
for the Egyptian forward at the international and club level.
