Joseph Aidoo’s battle with injuries has taken another unfortunate turn, as Real Valladolid has confirmed that the Ghanaian defender will be out for up to three weeks with a hamstring issue.

The setback occurred during Valladolid’s crushing 7-1 defeat against Athletic Bilbao, where Aidoo was forced off in the 65th minute. Scans later revealed a right hamstring strain, ruling him out for at least two weeks.

This latest injury adds to a difficult period for the 28-year-old, who suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon last October while on international duty with Ghana. That devastating injury kept him out for months, and despite working his way back to fitness, he struggled for game time at Celta Vigo.

Seeking a fresh start, Aidoo joined Valladolid in January, eager to help the club fight relegation and revive his career. However, just as he was settling into regular football again, his progress has been halted once more.

Aidoo’s journey in Europe began in Sweden with Hammarby in 2015, followed by a move to Belgian giants KRC Genk, where he made a name for himself before heading to Spain. Now, as he recovers from another setback, the Ghanaian defender faces yet another challenge in his quest to return to full fitness and make an impact in La Liga.
