Yanga's impressive midfielder Nizar Khalifann has been ruled out of the ongoing Cecafa Kagame Cup due to injury.
Nizar who did not play in the quarterfinal clash against Mafunzo suffered a groin injury when they faced APR in the group stages last week.
Also doubtful is first choice keeper Yaw Berko who limped out injured in the quarter final clash having suffered a knee injury that forced coach Tom Saintfiet to bring on Ali Mustafa.
"We will have to play without Khalifan who has been ruled out of our next games with a nagging groin injury. Our keeper Berko is also very doubtful for the next matches after he injured his knee. I am very troubled because my strikers like Said Bahanuz and Hamisi Kiiza are also fatigued and yet we do not have replacements," a frustrated Saintfiet told SuperSport.com.
