Gabon hope to be able to use captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on Tuesday when they play their last group game at the Africa Cup of Nations, after his dramatic exclusion from Friday's 1-1 draw against Ghana in Yaounde.
Aubameyang missed Gabon's opening game against the Comoros Islands on Monday after testing positive for COVID-19 on arrival in Cameroon for the tournament and being placed in quarantine along with teammate Mario Lemina.
Both rejoined the squad after almost a week isolating, and trained on the eve of their second Group C encounter against Ghana.
