  "account": "Ghanaian defender Marvin Senaya has made his long-awaited return to competitive football after a 120-day absence due to a hamstring injury. The 25-year-old made his debut for AJ Auxerre in the 2026/27 season on Sunday, coming on as a substitute in their 5-1 loss to Strasbourg in Ligue 1. Senaya entered the match in the 63rd minute and played for 27 minutes, marking his triumphant return. The injury had initially forced him to miss Ghana's Round of 32 round-robin match against Colombia at the 2026 FIFA World Cup on July 3, where he left the game after just 13 minutes. Following his recovery, Senaya underwent surgery in Paris before commencing his rehabilitation with Auxerre. His return to action is a welcome development for both the French club and the Black Stars, as he works towards full fitness. Ghana faces Somalia in a doubleheader in mid-November as part of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.",
