Hearts of Oak defender Raddy Ovouka could miss the side’s CAF Champions League game with Wydad Casablanca on Sunday October 17.

According to report, the left-back is nursing a knee injury and might not be ready for the CAF Champions League second qualifying round first leg encounter.

He is said to have aggravated the injury when he featured in the Phobians 2-0 win over Guinean side CI Kamsar in the first round.

Ovouka has been dropped from Congo ahead of the 2022 World Cup qualifying double-header against Madagascar this month as a result of the injury.

His absence would be a big blow for Hearts who are seeking qualification to the group stage for the first time since 2006.

Hearts of Oak will host Wydad at the Accra Sports Stadium next week Sunday, with the return encounter scheduled for Casablanca on October 22.
