The Swiss national team will be without several key players in the crucial Nations League matches, including defensive boss Manuel Akanji. Coach Murat Yakin faces a difficult task.
The Swiss national team is facing considerable challenges ahead of the last two Nations League group games. Coach Murat Yakin is without four key players, including defensive leader Manuel Akanji. These absences complicate the mission to avoid direct relegation to League B.
Akanji, the Manchester City defender, had to pull out due to adductor problems. He was already only on the substitutes' bench on Saturday. The absence of the defensive leader hits the already weakened defense hard.
