Kano State-born midfielder Adamu Mukhtar has successfully undergone surgery following the injury setback that temporarily halted his progress with Norwegian club Odds Ballklubb in the OBOS-ligaen.
The former Sporting Lagos F.C. player had made two league appearances this season before suffering the injury last month. His most recent outing came in Odds Ballklubb’s impressive 3–1 away victory over Sandnes on April 11, 2026.
