As the World Cup approaches, the injury nightmare intensifies, some stars have been confirmed to miss the tournament, and uncertainty continues for key players like Mbappe and Arda Güler.
According to a report by Medianews.az citing Lent.az, the football world is facing a major crisis ahead of the 2026 World Cup. With just over a month left until the tournament, injuries are occurring one after another, and uncertainty continues for many star players.
With about 40 days remaining until the tournament, the rapid increase in the number of injured players is notable. Although it is clear that key players such as Rodrigo, Ekitike, Gnabry, and Xavi Simons will be out of the squad, the situation of stars like Mbappe and Arda Güler is being closely monitored.
"Real" footballer Arda Güler ended his season after getting injured in the match against "Alaves." However, according to evaluations, the young player is expected to be ready for the World Cup, and hopes remain high regarding Turkey.
Although the severity of France national team star Kylian Mbappe's injury is not yet clear, Mohamed Salah's condition is also being closely watched due to a problem with his thigh muscle. Whether both players will be able to play in the tournament remains a main 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 like Brazil and Germany.
The increasing injuries disrupt the balance before the tournament and force many countries to reconsider their squad plans. The impact of the intense season schedule on players has come to the forefront again.
