Which Premier League players will miss January action through the Africa Cup of Nations and the Asia Cup?

Liverpool will lose Egyptian Mohamed Salah and Tottenham will have to make do without South Korea’s Heung-Min Son

Wataru Endo, a tough midfielder, will also be absent because he is joining Japan. With Thomas Partey (Ghana), Takehiro Tomiyasu (Japan), and Mohamed Elneny (Egypt) leaving for an indefinite period of time, depending on their countries’ results, Arsenal will be particularly heavily struck.

In addition, Tottenham loses midfielder Yves Bissouma to Mali, although Senegal’s roster includes Pape Sarr, who sustained an injury against Bournemouth on Sunday.

West Ham, now in sixth position, will suffer from the absence of important Ghanaian midfield player Mohammed Kudus.

Erik Ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, is under pressure to keep Andre Onana (Cameroon) and Sofyan Amrabat (Morocco) in the team.
