Black Stars Head Coach, Chris Hughton has passed a positive remark about Anderlecht midfielder Majeed Ashimeru ahead of the crucial encounter against Mozambique on Monday at the Alassane Outtara Olympique Stadium.
The 26-year-old midfielder has shone in all matches he has featured for the Black Stars so far and was subbed off in the 62nd minute after picking up a slight knock in the two-all draw against Egypt at the Felix Houphouet-Boigny Stadium.
We are still assessing him[Majeed Ashimeru], but the signs are good, he will train with the team, today[Sunday], but the signs are good that he will be fine.
This was the situation in the game against Egypt where we had to bring him off.

Ashimeru has made 6 appearances for the senior national team, yet to score.
His first goal for the Black Stars against Egypt was chalked off after Ransford Yeboah was deemed to have obstructed the view of Egpyt’s goalkeeper, thus in an offside position, a game which saw the Black Stars bottle a two-goal lead to draw two-all with the seven-time Champions.
