Terengganu FC Faces Setback as Ivan Mamut Sidelined with Achilles Tendon Injury

Terengganu FC suffered a setback as Croatian striker Ivan Mamut was ruled out of the upcoming season due to an Achilles tendon injury. Mamut, who emerged as the top scorer in the 2023 season with 17 goals, will be sorely missed by the team as they prepare to kick off the new campaign.

With Mamut sidelined, the responsibility of leading the attack will fall on Ismaheel Akinade and young striker Syahmi Zamri. Mamut’s absence adds to the injury woes for Terengganu, as defenders Azam Azmi Murad and Hakimi Abdullah are also currently out of action. However, there is some good news on the injury front, as Azam has started light training with the team after recovering from his setback.

Despite the setbacks, Terengganu fans can find solace in the fact that Mamut played a pivotal role in the team’s journey to the 2023 Malaysia Cup final. Mamut’s absence will be deeply felt, but the team will look to Akinade and Zamri to step up and fill the void left by the prolific forward.

The news of Mamut’s injury comes as a blow to Terengganu’s hopes for the upcoming season, with the Croatian striker proving to be a key figure in the team’s attacking prowess. As Mamut undergoes a lengthy recovery period, Terengganu will need to adjust their tactics and find new ways to score without their leading goal scorer.

As the team prepares for the start of the 2024/25 season, Terengganu will need to regroup and come up with a plan to overcome the absence of Mamut. With Akinade and Zamri leading the line, Terengganu will aim to continue their strong performances from the previous season and make an impact in the upcoming campaign.
