Batambuze: Gor Mahia defender provides injury update after knee operation

Gor Mahia defender Shafik Batambuze has assured club fans he will be fit to play in the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) by the start of June.

The dreadlocked Ugandan player sustained a nasty knee injury while turning out for the Kenyan champions in a Caf Champions League match against Aigle Noir of Burundi, and was forced to undergo surgery to repair the same.

The injury has kept Batambuze out of action for the entire season and after undergoing successful surgery in November, the player now says he will be able to return to action by the start of June.
