Out several weeks
Hannibal will be out for several weeks due to a hamstring injury, according to coach Scott Parker. "Hannibal no, he is probably a couple of weeks away and it wasn't as bad as we initially thought, but it will take a little longer."
Analysis: Hannibal was forced off with an injury in the last match against Fulham, and medical tests revealed a hamstring issue that will sideline him for several weeks. The midfielder had been a starter prior to the injury, so his absence could be felt, with Lesley Ugochukwu expected to see increased minutes until he returns.
Forced off injured
Hannibal was forced off in the 17th minute of Saturday's clash against Fulham due to an apparent hamstring injury, the club announced.
Analysis: Hannibal was forced off in the first half of Saturday's clash against Fulham due to an apparent hamstring injury. The midfielder will undergo further tests in the coming days to determine the severity of the issue, but the way he limped off the pitch does not look promising. If his absence is confirmed, Lesley Ugochukwu is expected to see increased minutes in the upcoming matches.
