Why Jamilu Collins excluded from Cardiff City vs. West Brom?

Posted : 29 November 2023

Super Eagles left-back Jamilu Collins was notably absent from Cardiff City's Championship clash against West Brom at the Cardiff City Stadium. His exclusion from the gameday squad was not due to injury but rather a suspension, marking a departure from his consistent presence in the squad since recovering from a career-threatening injury at the start of the 2023-2024 season.

Collins, a key figure in the Bluebirds' defensive lineup, has started fourteen out of a possible eighteen league games this season. His suspension resulted from accumulating five yellow cards, with the fifth card issued in the penultimate match against Preston North End.

In Collins' absence, Perry Ng took on the left-back role for Cardiff City, attempting to compensate for the loss of the influential Super Eagles defender. Collins had also received reprimands in previous matches against Leicester City, Coventry City, Blackburn Rovers, and Huddersfield Town.

Last season, Collins faced a cruciate ligament injury after collecting one yellow card in his first four Championship games. Notably, the left-back has previously recorded eight yellow cards in a single season during the 2013-2014, 2019-2020, and 2020-2021 campaigns.

Meanwhile, Collins' international teammate, Semi Ajayi, was present on the bench as a non-playing substitute for West Brom in the match against Cardiff City.
