The midfielder sustained the injury during Sunday’s 2-0 loss to Madagascar at the Alexandria Stadium.
Following the injury, Mikel Obi missed training on Monday and is expected to be out for a week.
His presence will not be greatly missed, as he has struggled in the games he featured in and did not complete 90minutes in any of them.
The 32-year-old who failed to play the entire duration of both matches against Burundi and Madagascar, has just completed a two-year deal with Turkish Super Lig outfit, Trabzonspor.
