It has been six tough and patience-testing months for Yanga’s right-back Yao Kouassi, popularly known as “Jeshiii,” who underwent knee surgery in May this year. He is now finally ready to return to the squad.
Yao has recovered from his injury and is back in full training, counting down the days until he can be reinstated in the team once the mid-season transfer window opens on December 15.
The right side of Yanga’s defense is set to strengthen further, with Yao expected to provide strong competition for Israel Mwenda, who was signed after Yao’s injury.
Yanga now has no worries regarding the full-back positions. On the right, they will have Yao, Mwenda, and Kibwana Shomari, while on the left they have Mohamed Hussein “Zimbwe Jr” and Chadrack Boka.
Additionally, Yao, Mwenda, and Kibwana are all versatile enough to operate as left-backs when needed..!
