Ghana defender Baba Rahman makes injury return for PAOK in win over HJK in Europa Conference League

Published on: 15 December 2023

Ghana international Baba Abdul Rahman made his return from injury for PAOK Thessaloniki during their Europa Conference League game against HJK Helsinki.

The Black Stars defender made substitute appearance for PAOK to mark his return from an injury that ruled him out for weeks.

The former Chelsea star was introduced in the 71st minute as the Greek outfit beat HJK 4-2 to finish top of Group G.

Baba Rahman had been sidelined since November 9 after picking up an injury. He missed the last four games for PAOK and was not included in the Black Stars squad for the 2026 World Cup qualification games against Madagascar and Comoros.

Before the injury, he had made 17 appearances across competition for PAOK. However, his return comes as a huge boost for the Greek giants as they seek to make huge impact in the ongoing campaign.

He is a candidate for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations following his return from injury.
