Aston Villa Expect Boubacar Kamara To Miss Rest Of Season

Overview

• Unai Emery said Kamara is out with a knee problem, is being assessed by doctors, and could be absent for a long time.
• The Athletic reported he is expected to miss the remainder of the season, and Sky Sports reporting cited by Yahoo Sports said he has been ruled out.
• Kamara sustained the injury in the FA Cup win at Tottenham and was forced off early after a heavy challenge from Joao Palhinha.
• Villa are now expected to seek a central midfielder in January after an initial two-to-three-week estimate was revised to a long-term layoff.
• Transfer reports also link Villa with a striker move, with Football Insider naming them as favourites to sign Tammy Abraham this month despite rival interest from Nottingham Forest and Everton.
