Hearts coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi says he will not rush star midfielder Samudeen Ibrahim to play following his recovery from a toe injury.

The playmaker, who has been out since their first league game with New Edubiase returned to full training a fortnight ago with many expecting him to feature in the Phobians 2-1 win over Hasaacas last week.

Samudeen did not make the match day squad as well as that of their trip to Dormaa and Kenichi believes the reigning division one league best player will not be rushed to aggravate his injury

“He is not ready yet, he just came back. If he played, he risked getting an injury,” Kenichi told reporters after the Aduana game.

“He won’t be able to play 90 minutes and I am not taking any player who is not match fit to play a game.”

Kenichi will be preparing his side for their midweek fixture against Liberty.
