“First of all, everyone is OK. No one has any additional injuries from last night’s game, but there are still some physical problems,” Ange told http://ufabet999.app reporters.

“Among those who are set to return is Destiny. We think he’ll be OK, we’ll train today, tomorrow, so he’ll get through it. Son is unlikely to play, he’s trying his best to come back but it’s too early for him to turn things around and play straight away.”

Son will be one of three players who will miss the trip to the AMEX, following Richarlison (undisclosed) and Wilson Odobert (thigh).
