Facing extended absence Welbeck (strain) will be sidelined indefinitely after manager Roberto De Zerbi told reporters Wednesday. "Solly March is injured, Danny Welbeck as well. Solly's injury is unfortuna... Impact At this point, Welbeck should probably be expected to be sidelined through at least the November international break, though it certainly sounds as though it could be longer. Prior to getting hurt, Welbeck made four starts in the club's previous five contests, including the previous UEL matchup with Marseille. In those five appearances, the forward managed two shots (one on target), one cross (inaccurate) and three tackles (one won). Joao Pedro figures to fill the attacking midfield role with Welbeck on the shelf.
