Mbappé, Fernandes, Isak and Three Others Suffer International-Break Injury Scares
The international break has brought injury concerns for several leading European clubs. Kylian Mbappé, Bruno Fernandes, Cody Gakpo, Alexander Isak, Eric García and Patrick Dorgu were all affected while on national-team duty. Mbappé is expected to miss about two weeks after sustaining a knee problem for France, although scans reportedly found no major ligament damage. Fernandes played through discomfort for Portugal before being rested, while Gakpo left the Netherlands’ win over Serbia early with an ankle issue. Isak has returned to Liverpool with a minor thigh problem after scoring for Sweden. Spain sent García back to Barcelona as a precaution over left-knee discomfort, while Dorgu returned to Manchester United for further assessment after suffering a suspected hamstring injury for Denmark. Their clubs will now await medical updates ahead of the return of domestic football.
