Hjalmar Ekdal

Burnley defender Hjalmar Ekdal (26) was forced off the field in Sweden’s 2–0 World Cup qualifier defeat to Kosovo, being substituted in the 66th minute due to an injury. The centre-back’s departure prompted Emil Krafth to come on in his place.

Burnley will now likely assess the extent of the injury over the coming days to determine whether this will sideline him for upcoming fixtures. (Source: Sports Dunia)
