Aston Villa Star Johan Manzambi Withdraws From Switzerland's Nations League Games
The 21-year-old returned to Aston Villa after calf pain kept him out, and Switzerland stayed at 26 players for its final two Nations League games.
- Winger Johan Manzambi has withdrawn from Switzerland's squad for two Nations League games due to a calf injury that failed to improve. The Swiss Football Association announced on Thursday that the 21-year-old returned to Aston Villa.
- Manzambi joined the national team camp on Monday with a calf injury. "Despite intensive medical treatment and further examinations, his condition has not improved sufficiently, making him unavailable for either game," the Swiss Football Association said in a statement.
- The national team squad now consists of 26 players following the winger's departure. The association confirmed no further players will be called up for the upcoming Nations League matches.
- Leading the four-team group by five points, Switzerland plays Slovenia on Friday and hosts Scotland on Monday, aiming to secure promotion to the next top-tier groups. A draw is sufficient to advance.
- Manzambi faces a demanding schedule upon returning to Villa, which has six games in 18 days after the international break, including Champions League clashes against Galatasaray and Paris Saint-Germain. He is a key starter for the club.
