Before the match of the tenth round of the English Premier League against Manchester United, the Nottingham Forest team suffered serious personnel losses. Ukrainian national team defender Oleksandr Zinchenko was among the players who will not be able to help the team.

The head coach of the club, Sean Dyche, who recently took charge of the Foresters, confirmed that the 28-year-old Ukrainian will miss the game due to a groin injury, which turned out to be more serious than expected.

“Ola is making good progress. Unfortunately, Zinchenko is not participating yet, and his recovery will take longer than we thought. Bakva is still not on the list, but the progress is good. I have to read them list by list so as not to forget,” the specialist said at the pre-match press conference.

The meeting between Nottingham Forest and Manchester United will take place on November 1 at the City Ground Stadium.
