Kamara might miss QPR's next game over Finland row

Queens Park Rangers midfielder Glen Kamara could be sidelined for Friday's Championship match against West Ham United due to a dispute between the club and Finland's Football Association over international duties. The FA of Finland claims Kamara was removed from their team for Tuesday's UEFA Nations League match against Hungary, following a request from QPR.

Head coach Jacob Friis stated that Kamara had to choose between leaving the camp to return to London and remaining with the national team. According to FIFA rules, a player who is released for international duty must be available for the entire window, unless they receive prior consent from the national team. If this wasn't upheld, Kamara's availability for Friday's game may be compromised, as it occurs three days after the international window ends.

Finland's general secretary, Marco Casagrande, expressed concern that the regulations were not properly followed and informed FIFA of the issue. Kamara, who has started three and been a substitute in four of QPR's eight Championship games so far this season, was not featured in Finland's opening match against San Marino and left the pitch early in their game against Belarus.

He returned to action against Albania after 45 minutes. The Finnish FA now concentrates on Tuesday's match with Hungary while QPR awaits a response from the club regarding Kamara's potential absence.
