Ghana and Stade Rennais attacker Kamaldeen Sulemana has bemoaned his niggling injury which has hampered his season.

The 20-year-old speed merchant joined the Ligue 1 outfit last summer and had a bright start to life in France.

But his promising start has been truncated by an injury he sustained in February which ruled him out of Ghana's World Cup play-offs against Nigeria.

Speaking to the club website, the ex-Nordsjaelland forward decried it has been a difficult moment for him, especially considering his brilliant start to the season in France after joining Stade Rennais.

“It’s difficult. There are up and downs. I’m happy when the team plays well and has results but it’s difficult not to take part and just watch games in front of the TV or just sitting in the stadium,” he said as quoted by Football Ghana.

“I’d like to be on the pitch and in the locker room doing what I know how to do and what I like to do. I cannot be satisfied. This is the first time I’ve been stopped for so long in my professional career." He decried

“I didn’t have a problem when I was in Denmark. This injury has lasted longer than expected. It’s a bit of a roller-coaster."

“At the start of the injury, after two weeks, I felt good. I thought I could be back soon. You start running again, you come back to the field, and there you feel the pain. Then you work hard again, you do whatever it takes to come back and the pains come back again,” he ended.
