Hull City boss Liam Rosenior provides fitness update on Ghana forward Benjamin Tetteh

Published on: 29 December 2022

Hull City manager Liam Rosenior has confirmed that Ghana striker Benjamin Tetteh is a couple of weeks away from returning to first team training after more than four months out with a hamstring injury.

Tetteh sustained the injury in the defeat to Sheffield United and his absence has been a huge blow for the club.

The 25-year-old could not make Ghana's squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar due to the injury, having been nmaed in the provisional list for the tournament.

"He's still a couple of weeks away, but he's back in training and we'll manage his load to make sure that he's up to speed," Rosenior said of Tetteh.

"It's great for me to see him in the flesh and I'm really looking forward to having him as part of the group again.

The Ghanaian returned to training on Christmas Eve having stepped up his fitness work during the club's mid-season training camp in Antalya, and is expected to be available for selection midway through January, providing there are no setbacks for the striker.

Tetteh has made nine appearances for Hull City this season in all competitions and provided three assists in the process.
