EXCLUSIVE: Visa issues set to rule out Lumor Agbenyenu in Real Mallorca’s match against Atletico Bilbao

Published on: 13 September 2019

Ghanaian international Lumor Agbenyenu is a doubt for Real Mallorca’s Spanish La Liga fixture against Atletico Bilbao later tonight over issued relating to paperwork.

According to footballgahan.com sources, the defender’s visa has expired which means he will not be eligible to feature for his side.

Though he has been working in the past work to get the issue fixed, it is unclear whether his mpaperwork will be renewed for his in time to give him the opportunity of playing against Bilbao.

Meanwhile, the club’s head coach Vincente Moreno in a pre-match interview has shared that they are monitoring the situation on the grounds and will take a final decision this afternoon before they go into the match this evening.

"The kid has put all the interest in the world to fix it as soon as possible, but it couldn't be. He needs to have the papers in order, it's a bureaucratic issue. Now he's traveling, but I don't know if he'll arrive this afternoon or tomorrow morning and if he can play or not”, the gaffer explained.

Coach Moreno will turn to fellow Ghanaian international Baba Rahman if Lumor does not get his visa renewed on time.

Commenting on the availability of Baba, the coach shared, “We only had one, in fact, if it had not been incorporated, today we would be without a left-back (in reference to the absence of Lumor). Therefore there was that need to sign a player in that position, there was no other”.
