Ajayi Makes Progress in Hamstring Injury Recovery

Hull City assistant coach Dean Holden has given an encouraging update on Semi Ajayi’s injury.

Ajayi suffered a hamstring injury while playing for Nigeria in their bronze medal match against Egypt at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. The 32-year-old was one of Nigeria’s standout performers throughout the tournament.

The injury has kept the experienced defender out of Hull City’s last seven matches across all competitions.

Holden revealed that Ajayi is now close to returning to full training and could soon be back in action for the club.

“Semi (Ajayi) is going well, but again, not back in the team training just yet. Toby’s (Collyer) a little bit behind Semi. He’s still doing some individual rehab,” Holden was quoted by Hull Live.

He has made 12 league appearances for the Tigers this season, with one goal to his name.
