The Algerian international Mohamed Beloumi has received another painful blow with his English club Hull City, as medical examinations confirmed he is suffering from a hamstring injury that will keep him off the field for a period ranging from 6 to 8 weeks, according to hulldailymail website, on Thursday.

The 23-year-old player had gradually regained his place in the "Tigers" lineup after recovering from a serious anterior cruciate ligament injury that sidelined him since last November, but his joy of returning was short-lived as he had to leave the pitch injured during the recent match against Southampton.

Beloumi made a good impression in his few appearances since resuming play last August, which made Hull City fans rely heavily on him in the upcoming rounds of the Championship, but this new setback will prevent him from playing at least 9 matches, notably against Watford, Preston North End, and Sheffield United.

The Algerian star will undergo a special treatment and rehabilitation program, awaiting his return to strengthen his team at the beginning of the second phase of the season.
