Christopher Nkunku absent longer than expected

When nothing goes … Hit in the knee on Tuesday during training with the France team after a duel with Eduardo Camavinga (who, however, does not touch him), Christopher Nkunku (25) was forced to declare package for the 2022 World Cup. The absence of the tricolor striker, who remained at Clairefontaine when all his compatriots flew to Qatar, was initially between 6 and 8 weeks.

But according to the latest information provided by The Team this Friday evening, the former PSG player suffers from a ruptured left knee ligament. The diagnosis is final, and if the Crusaders are fortunately not affected for him, Nkunku should be out for around two and a half months with RB Leizpig. He should therefore not be able to return in time for the clash against Bayern on January 20 in the Bundesliga.
