Dutch Eredisivie side FC Utrecht could be without their Ghanaian captain Nana Akwasi Asare for three weeks after he suffered a hamstring injury in their 1-1 stalemate at NAC Breda on Saturday, tufaghanafc.com can confirm. 

The 26-year-old former KV Mechelen left-back was forced out of the game on the 40th minute mark after sustaining the injury from a challenge.

Nana Asare handed the armband to team-mate Jan Wuytens and joined the Utrecht bench.

The Tamale Utrecht Football Academy ambassador underlined his impressive form for Utrecht after sending a powerful left-footed drive on the 12th minute mark  which was stopped by NAC keeper Ten Rouwelaar.

Asare, a former Fetteh Feyenoord Academy graduate is capped six times by Ghana.
