Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. Plymouth Argyle defender Brendan Galloway will miss the Warriors’ upcoming World Cup Qualifiers in March, having been ruled out for the rest of the season due to injury.
The 28-year-old Zimbabwe international sustained the injury towards the end of last week’s 1-1 draw with Oxford United.
Galloway will need surgery on the upper part of his leg.
Pilgrims head coach Miron Muslic did not confirm the exact nature of the injury when he spoke to the BBC. He said:
He was in a good way, he played defensively very strong, so that’s another that we’re going to miss – not only his quality but also his personality and his mentality.Buy Samsung, itel, Redmi smartphones in Zimbabwe

This is the latest setback for the former Everton and Luton Town player, who has been plagued by injuries during his time at Argyle.
He suffered a dislocated kneecap in December 2021, which kept him out for the remainder of that season. He also missed much of 2023 due to injury.
Zimbabwe will host Benin on March 17 at a venue yet to be confirmed, before travelling to Nigeria on March 24.
The Warriors are currently at the bottom of Group C in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, with only 2 points after 4 matches.
Rwanda sits at the top of the group with 7 points, the same as South Africa and Benin. Lesotho has 5 points, while Nigeria is in 5th position with 3 points.
