Club Brugge faces injury concerns ahead of their upcoming Champions League match against Inter Milan. The Belgian team will be making their second appearance in the European competition this season, following a 3-2 loss to Aston Villa. Inter Milan also suffered a setback in their opening game, losing 2-1 away to Real Madrid.
Club Brugge's head coach, Ivan Leko, has expressed worry over the fitness of winger Carlos Forbs, who has been a key player for the team since joining from Ajax last summer. Leko admitted that Forbs may not be fit enough to play in the Inter Milan clash, speculating that the young Portuguese player could be nursing a muscle injury. Despite Forbs' impressive record since joining Club Brugge, including 11 goals and 11 assists in 51 appearances last season, his availability for the upcoming match remains uncertain.
In 51 games for Club Brugge last year, Forbs scored a remarkable 11 goals and provided 11 assists, showcasing his exceptional talent and potential. The 22-year-old has continued to impress since his transfer, netting two goals and providing three assists in his nine appearances for the team so far. Club Brugge is understandably hoping that Forbs will recover quickly, as his absence would significantly impact their chances of overcoming Inter Milan in the Champions League.
