ISL: East Bengal Defender Hijazi Maher Ruled Out For Season Due To Knee Injury
East Bengal FC: East Bengal FC suffered a major setback ahead of the crucial final phase of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 season, as defender Hijazi Maher has been ruled out for the remainder of the campaign due to a knee injury.
The club confirmed Maher’s absence dealing a blow to their already struggling season. "After evaluating Hijazi’s medical reports, we can confirm that the defender will miss the remainder of the season due to a knee injury," East Bengal posted on 'X'.
The 27-year-old center-back sustained the injury during a training session late last year, just before East Bengal’s goalless draw against Mumbai City FC. Despite initial hopes of a recovery, medical assessments have now confirmed that Maher will not return before the end of the season.
