Benin Republic will be without two more players for their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Nigeria and Libya.

Midfielder Matteo Ahlinvi and left-back David Kiki are the latest players to be ruled of both matches.

Ahlinvi picked up an injury, while in action for his Swedish side Vasteras last weekend and will stay at the club for treatment.

Kiki is currently with team in Abidjan, but will sit out the game due to fitness concern, according to head coach, Gernot Rohr.

. “Kiki is still a little short to resume right away. He has been injured for two months but he has regained his health,” Rohr was quoted by Joueurs Beninois.

Dependable defenders Cedric Hountondji and Olivier Verdon have already been ruled out of the crucial qualifiers.

Rohr has however failed to call-up replacements for the injured quartet.
