Welsh international midfielder from Nice, Aaron Ramsey will not play against the Germans in Cologne on Thursday at the opening of the Europa League Conference, and will be "
absent for three weeks
", said Lucien Favre on Wednesday.
In response to a question about the balance of his team's midfield, Lucien Favre indicated, in a pre-match press conference, that midfielder Aaron Ramsey was injured against Monaco (0-1) on Sunday during the derby with “
hamstring
” muscles .
"
Aaron Ramsey won't be there," Favre said.
He will be out for three weeks.
He hurt himself on Sunday, which is why he went out.
These are the (muscles, editor’s note) hamstrings
”.
Ramsey was replaced by young Alexis Beka Beka in the 55th minute of the game.
Ramsey, qualified with the Welsh selection for the World Cup, should therefore not be available for the last meeting with his selection, from September 19, before the competition in Qatar.
Besides Ramsey, Favre said Algerian defender Youcef Atal, who suffered a thigh injury, will also not play against Cologne.
On the other hand, he should be restored for the trip from Nice to Ajaccio on Sunday.
Finally, the ultimate recruit from Nice, the English international Ross Barkley, not qualified for European competitions, should not be ready quickly for the championship either.
"
I can't say (how he is physically, editor's note), said Favre.
He hasn't had a full match since mid-July.
He's only been there two days.
The matches, the competition and the rhythm can be lacking
”, before specifying on the best position of the player: “
I was told: ''it's no longer an n8.''
