More Inury Woes for Pillars Ahead of Rangers Tie

Kano Pillars will be without Umar Zango and Mustapha Musa in Sunday’s Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) tie at Enugu Rangers.

The duo are the new names added to a growing list of injured players, which already includes Gambo Mohammed and Kabiru Umar.

Super Eagles central defender, Zango, picked up a foot injury during training and will now be sidelined for the Glo Premier League Week 2 clash in Enugu.
