Wikki Tourist’s Abba Umar unhappy after injury-plagued season

Wikki Tourist’s Abba Umar has expressed his regrets at the way injury cut short his season.

Umar scored seven goals and had two assists to help the Giant Elephant finish seventh on the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) table with 30 points from 22 games.

However, the attacker has had a season interrupted by injuries, which reduced the number of games he played to a mere 15, including missing the final four games of the season due to a toe injury.

Umar stressed that he was thrilled that he performed better than last season when he netted just once, but added that staying injury-free and scoring more goals will be among his targets ahead of next season.
