Serge Aurier was reportedly forced off during Ivory Coast's 3-1 win over Comoros in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifier earlier today (Friday).
The Nottingham Forest right-back was selected by Jean-Louis Gasset for the side's double header with Comoros earlier this month. However, Aurier now looks a doubt for the second-leg tie on Tuesday (March 28).
The 30-year-old who was named in Gasset's starting XI on Friday, captained the side before he was forced to withdraw at half-time. Aurier appeared to have picked up a knock according to local media and was replaced by Wilfried Singo as the side led 1-0.

Aurier, who joined Forest last September on a free transfer, has been a near ever present player in Steve Cooper's team this season. However, the extent of his injury could bring some worry to Forest with a number of significant fixtures to come after the international break.
The Reds will return to action on April 1, when they host Wolves at the City Ground.
