Keimuine nurses hamstring
Itamunua Keimuine has scored four goals in seven appearances for his Ethiopian club.
Dire Dawa City Sport Club (SC) striker Itamunua Keimuine says he is recovering well from a hamstring injury.
The player did not feature in Dire Dawa City's match over the weekend, due to his injury.
The team managed to beat Hawassa Keneme FC 1-0.
Keimuine is, however, optimistic that he will recover and play a part in the club's matches going forward.
The former Tura Magic striker joined the Ethiopian outfit on 30 September 2018.
“Well, I have been nursing a hamstring injury and that is why I was not in action over the weekend.
“I am, however, recovering well and hope to contribute more to the team in the coming weeks and months.
“I have two more weeks before I can play again or return to full strength.
“Life here is great and I am enjoying my stay here in Ethiopia,” Keimuine said.
The Ethiopian team has been struggling to escape from the bottom half of the table and are in dire need of the Namibian striker's scoring prowess.
Keimuine made his debut for the Brave Warriors on 10 September 2014 against Swaziland and was part of the squad that won the 2015 edition of the Cosafa Cup in South Africa.
He has over 20 caps for Namibia and has scored three goals for the national team.
Dire Dawa City were founded in 2003 with the hope of restoring the city's historic place in Ethiopian football.
The following year (2004/05), the club played in a regional league which was then considered the third tier of Ethiopian football.
In 2005/06 the club entered the second tier of Ethiopian football, then called the Ethiopian National League (now called the Ethiopian Higher League).
The club entered the Ethiopian Premier League for the first time in the 2007/08 season.
