New Delhi: Amra Team Kolkata (ATK) forward Robbie Keane is likely to miss the first week of the Indian Super League (ISL) season 4 due to a niggle in his left foot.

The former Tottenham Hotspur star was signed by the Kolkata outfit earlier this season on a one-year contract.

"To be very honest, he (Robbie Keane) is suffering a niggle in the left foot, I'm still not sure if he will fly back to Ireland, but he might miss some games," an ATK team member told IANS.

The 37-year-old earlier this week scored once to help ATK defeat I-League club Neroca FC 2-1 at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan training ground in Kolkata.

Defending champions ATK take on Kerala Blasters in the opening match of Season 4 in Kochi on Friday (Nov 17).
