Chelsea transfer target Christopher Nkunku may face a race against time to be fit by the end of January as the France star sees his winter window move put in doubt.
The 25-year-old has a pre-agreement to join Chelsea in 2023, but Todd Boehly is keen to try and move that forward to January in a bid to secure the deal ahead of other European powerhouses and also to strengthen the squad available to Graham Potter in the second half of the season.
Nkunku, who was part of Didier Deschamps' 26-man France squad for the World Cup in Qatar, has been withdrawn from the tournament following an injury in training less than one week before Les Bleus kick off their campaign.
