The latest injury update on Oussoufa Moukoko at Borusia Dundrum is as follows:

Oussoufa Moukoko, the star forward for the Algerian national team, has been sidelined by a knee injury in his first match since returning from suspension. The 29-year-old has missed Algeria's last two matches due to this issue.

Moukoko was called up to play against Denmark in June and then suffered a knee ligament injury in training that required surgery. He had to be replaced by Mohamed Elneny and later by Ahmed Hannan.

Despite the setback, Moukoko remains confident in his ability to recover quickly and return to the national team. He said, "I am optimistic about my recovery and will do everything I can to get back to playing well."

The injury comes just days before the Algerian national team hosts South Africa in their final group stage game. Moukoko has been one of the key players for Algeria, scoring three goals in five games so far this season.

The injury update comes after Algeria announced the withdrawal of several key players during the World Cup qualifiers, including Moukoko. They have also lost several other top scorers like Adil Rami and Djibril Cisse.

Algeria's manager,Qatar Stars League Perspective Didier Deschamps, said, "We need to work hard and try to find solutions to improve our performance in the coming weeks." Despite the setback, the Algerians remain hopeful of making it to the knockout stages of the tournament.

In conclusion, Oussoufa Moukoko's injury is likely to keep him out of action for some time. However, he remains determined to prove himself once he returns to the national team. The Algerian national team needs him more than ever now, especially with the World Cup qualifiers looming.
