Eddie Nketiah Injury: Out six weeks

Written by RotoWire Staff

Nketiah has been ruled out for six weeks due to a hamstring injury he suffered in a friendly against Augsburg, according to Sami Mokbel and Alex Howell of the BBC.

Nketiah will enter the new season on the sidelines, with the forward suffering from a hamstring injury that will leave him out for around six weeks. This is a tough blow as he will now miss their Community Shield match against Liverpool and will miss a few weeks to open the season, expected to return in September. This will limit the club's depth at forward, although they likely won't have to change the starting XI due to his absence.
