Chelsea transfer target Christopher Nkunku will miss the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after suffering a sprained knee in training one week before Les Bleus' first game.
The RB Leipzig attacker has been replaced by Tottenham's own transfer target Randal Kolo Muani. The Frankfurt forward was looked at by Spurs whilst on the books at Nantes but chose Bundesliga over Premier League and has impressed at his new club.
Antonio Conte's men may well be rueing missing out on Muani after his contract expired over the summer and will now have to watch him in action for his country following the injury to Nkunku.
