Zambian forward Edward Chilufya is expected to return to action soon for Swedish Champions, Djurgadens IF after being out for six weeks due to injury.
The Mphande Youth product suffered an injury during Djurgadens 1-0 loss to Malmö FF. Chilufya lasted only for 33 minutes in the match as he suffered an unfortunate injury during a running duel with Foad Bachirou who looked to have gone a little too hard with his arms on the Mphande Youth product who has been on the sidelines ever since.
Djurgadens assistant coach Thomas Lagerlöf confirmed in a post-match interview on Wednesday that the Zambian winger and Former Lech Poznań striker Nicklas Bärkroth will be out of the treatment room soon.
Thomas Lagerlöf: "Väldigt svag första halvlek, vi fick mer energi i andra halvlek och sprang mer i djupled"
"När vi bestämde oss för att byta ut Banda piggnade han till igen"
"Chilufya och Bärkroth tillbaka snart vilket kommer hjälpa oss i det tuffa matchandet" pic.twitter.com/npK0fCn2IS
