Norwich striker Mbokani ‘unharmed but shaken’ after Brussels airport attack

Norwich striker Dieumerci Mbokani was unharmed after being caught up in the terror attacks in Brussels.

Brussels Airport was rocked by a double blast while another explosion occurred at a Metro station in the city. Thirty-four were confirmed as having died, with up to 170 injured in the blasts, which were claimed by IS.

Congo international Mbokani, who is on loan from Dynamo Kiev, was at Zaventem Airport at the time of the attacks.

City say the 30-year-old was “unharmed, but shaken” by the bomb blasts.

Norwich added that Mbokani has now returned home to be with his family, and the club remain in constant dialogue with him.

A club statement added: “The thoughts of everyone at Norwich City are with the victims of the atrocities in Belgium today and their relatives.”

It is unknown whether Mbokani would be involved in Congo’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifying double-header against Angola on Saturday and next Tuesday.

Norwich added: “There will be no further statements from the club or Dieumerci Mbokani at this time.”
