Moses Simon missing as Samuel Kalu returns to action for Gent
#MTNshortz3sixtyworld
Samuel Kalu has staged a comeback after a muscle injury as KAA Gent beat hosts OHLeuven 2-0 in a pre-season friendly, but Nigeria international Moses Simon is still missing in action for the Belgian
club.
Kalu played for 72 minutes with his coach saying the winger wanted to play on.
Compatriot Anderson Esiti started the game, but was also replaced in the second half.
However, Moses Simon, who suffered a major thigh injury with the Super Eagles prior to the recent World Cup, was again not involved in this game.
He has been linked with a transfer away from the club in this transfer window.
Gent open their new season campaign on Friday at Standard Liege.
