Ghana defender Daniel Opare, who joined Bundesliga outfit Augsburg, has been ruled out for three weeks after colliding with a teammate in training on Monday evening.

Reports suggest the versatile full-back's setback is not a serious one.

The Bundesliga side are not ready to take chances with his fitness and will allow Opare time out to fully recover.

The 24-year-old right-back joined Augsburg on a three-year contract on a free transfer after parting ways with his former Portuguese club Porto.

Opare has featured 16 times for the Black Stars, including a single appearance at the 2014 Fifa World Cup in Brazil. He was also a member of the Ghana team that won the 2009 Fifa Under-20 World Cup.
