Nigeria international Michael Babatunde might be disciplined internally by his Ukrainian club, Volyn Lutsk.

Due to the political climate in the Eastern European country, the winger has failed to turn up for training, without the consent of the club, according to the electronic edition of ITAR - TASS.

Remember that during the World Cup fixture between the Super Eagles and Argentina, Michael Babatunde had to be stretchered off the field after dislocating his wrist.

That injury was to sideline him for not more than a month, meaning he ought to be in Ukraine practicing with his teammates at this moment.

In the case involving Metalist Kharkiv and Shakhtar Donetsk, UEFA supported both teams, stating that the absentee players must honour contractual obligations with their employers.

21 - year - old Michael Babatunde is under contract with Volyn Lutsk for the next three seasons.

He was conspicuously missing from the lineup when his team took on Illichivets in the Ukrainian Premier League on Saturday.
