Heart injuries were found during post-recovery checks from Covid of the 3 footballers. The Caf has decided not to let them take the field

The news came just before Gabon took the field against Ghana in the Africa Cup. Three players of the national team, after being negativized by Covid, were still unable to take the field due to heart injuries detected in post-recovery checks.

The names

These are Pierre Emerick Aubameyang of Arsenal, Axel Meyé of Ittihad Tanger and Mario Lemina of Nice (and former Juve). The news came directly from the Gabonese Federation, via their twitter profile

The decision

In the tweet of the Gabonese federation we read that the decision came directly from the medical commission of the Caf (the African federation), which did not want to risk and therefore decided not to let the three players take the field: “According to the medical commission of the Caf , the players Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, Axel Meyé and Mario Lemina, just recovered from Covid, cannot take part in this match. The exams would show heart lesions, the Caf did not want to take any risks “.
