Sunshine Stars defender and skipper, Habib Yakub has pulled up with a hamstring injury while in action for his side over the weekend.
Yakub went off with the injury in Sunshine Stars’ 3-0 loss at Remo Stars on Sunday afternoon.
The right-back fell to the floor clutching his left thigh in the 31st minutes and was replaced with Abe Sunday in the 35th minute.
Some reports suggest Habib – who has appeared in over 90% of Sunshine Stars games so far this season is now a doubt to play in next two games before the mid-season break.
But that will be of little comfort for the Owena Whales, who are waiting to assess the extent of the problem and will ensure Habib undergoes tests to determine the extent of the issue.
