Although Panutche Camara’s hamstring injury has been verified by Charlton Athletic manager Michael Appleton, the degree of the injury is unknown at this time.
Camara, a midfielder, was recruited by Charlton Athletic during the summer on loan from Ipswich Town. He participated in the first three games but was eventually forced to sit on the sidelines. Last month, he made a comeback during the 4-0 victory over Reading.
His time at Addicks follows an injury-plagued debut season at Portman Road, and worries were aroused once more when the 26-year-old was substituted early in last night’s victory over Reading. Early on, Camara was forced to make way for Tyreece Campbell and was clearly furious about it.
Following the game, Charlton Athletic boss Appleton was able to give an initial update. The extent of the injury is not known at this stage,, but he confirmed Camara has suffered a hamstring injury.
“It’s a hamstring injury—we don’t know the extent. They tend to happen this time of the year when the temperature drops a little bit and we’re up north.
“I feel for him because he has worked ever so hard to get himself back fit and in contention. I’m really gutted for him. I just hope it’s one of them where it is a two– or three-week one and he gets the opportunity to recover quickly.”
Fingers crossed…
It’s no secret that Camara was a real star at League One level during his time at Plymouth Argyle,, and it had been hoped he would have a similar impact at Ipswich Town. Injuries prevented him from doing so,, but the hope had been that a Charlton Athletic spell could see him get some minutes under his belt and some confidence into the midfielder again.
However, this new concern could be a fresh blow for the Guinea-Bissau international. After his emotional withdrawal, Appleton, his coaching team,, and the rest of the squad will no doubt rally around Camara while hoping the extent of the injury isn’t too serious.
Charlton Athletic ended up winning 3-2 on the night. It lifted them to 11th place in the League One table.
