LASK's Dietmar Kühbauer Anticipates Quick Return for Usor

LASK head coach Dietmar Kühbauer has expressed optimism regarding the recovery of Super Eagles forward Moses Usor from a shoulder injury. Usor suffered the injury during LASK's 2-0 defeat to Rapid Wien at the Raiffeisen Arena, where he was substituted in the 61st minute for Christoph Lang but had to leave the field 12 minutes later, replaced by Samuel Adediran.

Kühbauer confirmed the injury, stating, “Mo has a slight injury to his shoulder joint. I hope it won’t take too long.” The 24-year-old Usor is now doubtful for LASK's UEFA Champions League match against Liverpool on Wednesday evening.

This injury poses a significant challenge for Kühbauer, as LASK is scheduled to play eight matches across all competitions in the next four weeks. Usor had recently made his Super Eagles debut, scoring the winning goal in Nigeria’s 2-1 victory over Madagascar during the September international break.
