Austin 'Jay Jay' Okocha is most likely to miss Saturday's World Cup clash against Zimbabwe after he hurt his groin again while in action for his English Premiership side Bolton at the weekend.
"He felt the groin go when tracking back to nullify Wigan's attack," Bolton manager Sam Allardyce confirmed on his club's website.
"It is a huge worry for us and as a worse case scenario he could be out for up to four weeks.
"We will make an assessment over the next couple of days and hope he'll be back when we return from the international break."
Injury had also ruled him out of last month's World Cup tie against Algeria in Oran.
In his absence, Nwankwo Kanu will lead the Eagles against the Warriors from Harare.
