Sidelined Star Hamami to Miss Decisive Matches as London Surgery Sidelines him

Update on Hamam Hamami's Injury Absence

Al Shabab Saudi FC announced on Saturday that 21-year-old Hamam Hamami underwent successful surgery in London for a hernia, and will begin a medical and rehabilitation plan before gradually returning to action.

The club did not specify the duration of his absence, though earlier reports suggested a four week layoff before he can return to the pitch.

In December, Shabab are scheduled to face Al Riyadh on the 20th, then Al Ittihad on the 27th, before finishing the month with Al Qadisiyah.

Shabab currently sit 13th in the Saudi Pro League table with 8 points, from one win, five draws and three defeats.

Punchline 1: If injuries were transfers, Hamami would be waiting for the right club to call him back from London.

Punchline 2: Meanwhile, the medical staff must be paid in punchlines, because this calendar is the league s worst comedian.
