His absence will cause some shifting around on the bench but isn't too big of a blow for the team, as he has only started once in the UCL in three appearances. Expect the midfielder to most likely be an option by Sunday for their match against Villarreal.

NOVEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Injured in Champions League Soumare was brought off after five minutes during Wednesday's clash with Arsenal, due to an injury.

Impact Soumare came on for Joan Jordan and was brought off less than five minutes late for Mariano Diaz. It was an absolutely awful cameo for the midfielder who did nothing but earn a booking during his limited time on the pitch. Soumare started four matches in a row before the clash with Arsenal and would be a significant loss if ruled out for Sunday's clash with Betis. Unless the injury proves to be very minor Soumare will likely be out until the other side of the international break.
