As the World Cup approaches, the injury nightmare intensifies, with some stars confirmed to miss the tournament, and uncertainty continues for key players such as Mbappe and Arda Guler.
According to Lent.az, citing foreign media, the football world is facing a major crisis ahead of the 2026 World Cup. With just over a month to go until the tournament, injuries are coming one after another, and uncertainty remains for many star players.
It is noteworthy that the number of injured players is increasing rapidly as the tournament is about 40 days away. While it is clear that key players such as Rodrigo, Ekitike, Gnabry, and Xavi Simons will be out of the squad, the situation of stars such as Mbappe and Arda Guler is being closely monitored.
Real Madrid's footballer Arda Guler has finished the season after being injured in the match against Alaves. However, according to assessments, the young player is expected to be ready for the World Cup, and hopes remain high for Turkey.
Although the severity of the injury of French national team star Kilian Mbappe is still unknown, Mohamed Salah's condition is also being closely monitored due to a hamstring problem. Whether both players can play in the tournament remains a key question.
It has been confirmed that key players such as Rodrigo, Militao, Gnabry, and Xavi Simons will miss the World Cup. This situation has directly affected the plans of giants such as Brazil and Germany.
Increasing injuries are disrupting the pre-tournament balance, forcing many countries to reconsider their squad plans. The impact of the busy season schedule on players has come to the fore again.
