Hidemasa Morita Injury: Dealt muscle issues

Morita has been missing time due to a muscle injury he suffered Aug. 23 in a match against Nacional, according to manager Rui Borges, per Diogo Lagos Reis of Bola Na Rede. "He felt uncomfortable. Let's analyze and see what can happen."

Morita has been missing for a few weeks due to a muscle complaint and will remain out a few more days, as he was held out of the international break with Japan. The good news is this is a minor injury, possibly in for a return soon. They do start UCL play on Sept 18 against Kairat Almaty, so he will hope to be recovered by then.
