Trabzonspor won the game courtesy of a Paul Onuachu goal, but compatriot Nwakaeme was replaced in the 84th minute due to injury.
Trabzonspor doctor Ahmet Beşir explained the injury.
“Our player, Anthony Nwakaeme, was injured in the match against Kocaelispor in the first week of the Trendyol Super League,” he reported.
“Following an examination and MRI, a tear, bleeding, and widespread edema were detected in the posterior muscle and tendon of his left thigh.
