Algerian international Ryan Ait Nouri sustained an early injury during his team's match against Tottenham in the second round of the Premier League, raising concerns for the coaching and medical staff of the "Greens".

Ait Nouri left the pitch in the 22nd minute of the first half after a challenge with Ghanaian player Mohammed Kudus from Tottenham, as he appeared unable to continue the match and exited the field shortly after the injury.

The left-back is expected to undergo thorough medical examinations in the coming hours to determine the nature of the injury and the potential duration of his absence, especially since the Algerian national team is preparing to enter a training camp ahead of their matches against Botswana and Guinea in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

Ait Nouri's absence, if confirmed, would be a significant blow to the national coach's plans, considering the heavy reliance on him in the left flank recently.
