The news that William Saliba has been injured while playing for Marseille is causing concern among fans and the football world. The defender was taken off the pitch with an injury during a match against Nice on Saturday, which led to his replacement being substituted early.
It's not clear what specific injury Saliba sustained, but it's likely to be serious enough to keep him out of action for some time. This could be a setback for Marseille, who were hoping to make a push for European football this season.
Saliba joined Marseille from Arsenal in January 2019,Saudi Pro League Focus and he has since made over 50 appearances for the club. He is known for his strong defensive work and his ability to track back quickly. His absence will be felt by both Marseille and his teammates as they look to bounce back from a poor start to the season.
While it's impossible to predict exactly how long Saliba will be out, it's likely that he won't be able to play until at least the end of February or even March. This means that Marseille may need to rely on other players to step up and fill his role in defense. It remains to be seen whether this will be enough to turn things around for the team, but it's certainly a worrying development for those following their progress.
