Sevilla Wary as Ejuke Plays Informal Street Game Despite Recent Injury
Nigerian winger Chidera Ejuke, currently with Sevilla FC, has come under scrutiny after being spotted participating in informal street football games in Nigeria—despite recently suffering a serious muscle injury .
Ejuke, who joined Sevilla on a free transfer last year, made a strong start in LaLiga before the injury occurred during a high-profile clash with Barcelona. He has since struggled to regain form and even lost his place in the matchday squad.
The club has reportedly warned him about off-pitch conduct, concerned that returning to "pachanga" matches without proper rehabilitation could set back his recovery .
⚠️ Why This Matters
Player care vs. street habits: Informal matches can lead to re-injury or slowed recovery, troubling both club medical staff and management.
Professional discipline: Ejuke’s actions raise questions about the boundaries athletes should observe—even during personal time.
Fan concern: With expectations high, both Sevilla fans and Super Eagles followers hope Ejuke returns in peak condition.
📢 Call to Action
⚽ If you’re a football fan:
Let Ejuke know you trust his talent—but remind him that his long-term health matters!
Support efforts to ensure players get proper rehab
and guidance post-injury.
