Ghanaian midfielder Daniel Kofi Kyereh has made a long-awaited return to action after nearly two years on the sidelines due to a serious anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.
The 28-year-old sustained the injury in February 2023, a setback that ruled him out for an extended period and was further complicated by relapses following surgery and rehabilitation during 2024. After months of hard work, patience, and recovery, Kyereh has finally reached a major milestone in his comeback.
On Wednesday evening, the midfield maestro participated in his first senior team training session with SC Freiburg since his injury, ahead of the club’s UEFA Europa League encounter against Maccabi Tel Aviv on Thursday night at home. His return to full team training marks a significant step forward and signals that he is edging closer to competitive action.
Kyereh’s comeback is not only a major boost for Freiburg but also timely news for the Ghana national team. With the 2026 FIFA World Cup just five months away, the Black Stars’ technical team is expected to closely monitor his progress and fitness before making a final decision on his possible return to international duty.
Known for his creativity, work rate, and intelligence in midfield, Kyereh has been a key figure whenever fit, and his availability could add much-needed depth and quality to Ghana’s squad.
For the player, this return represents the end of a difficult chapter and the beginning of a fresh opportunity. For Ghana, it offers renewed hope as preparations intensify for the World Cup qualifiers.
A huge relief for Daniel Kofi Kyereh and a major positive for Ghana football.
