Aleksandar Mitrovic faces a club-v-country row after getting called up for Serbia’s World Cup squad despite being ruled out of Fulham ’s final Premier League game.
Serbia's record goalscorer will miss Manchester United ’s visit to Craven Cottage on Sunday with a nagging foot injury he suffered in September. Mitrovic revealed last month he is in a “lot of pain” and playing with the help of painkillers.
Whites boss Marco Silva has denied reports in Serbia that his team’s talisman had broken two bones in his foot. But the Portuguese, who said Mitrovic wants to go to Qatar, claimed his World Cup was in doubt before talks next week between Fulham and Serbia next week.
