Zimbabwean international Costa Nhamoinesu’s absence from the Warriors has raised questions on whether the Czech Republic based defender is really injured.

Nhamoinesu’s was not named in Callisto Pasuwa’s 23 man squad to face Tanzania on Sunday with ZIFA claiming Nhamoinesu is currently suffering from muscular problems which have seen him miss club action for over a month.

However Nhamoinesu returned to action just this past weekend when Sparta Prague edged Slovan Liberic 1-0. Nhamoinesu played the full match.

Nhamoinesu in fact put up a delightful defensive show the entire match according to reports from the Czech Republic.

Sparta Prague appear to have asked for Nhamoinesu to not be considered after just recovering from the injury and playing.

Feedback from ZIFA regarding his injury:
