Who is going to AFCON from YOUR club? Liverpool set for huge Mane and Salah loss but Spurs will not lose a single player
THE Africa Cup of Nations is set to go ahead next month despite Covid concerns following crunch talks.
And that could have a major impact on a number of Premier League clubs and their respective fights at both ends of the table.
Liverpool are set to be hit the hardest, losing Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane – as well as Naby Keita – in what could be a major blow in their fight to regain the Prem title.
But a number of other clubs are set to lose key players for four weeks – with the tournament taking place in Cameroon between January 9 and February 6.
We take a look at how every Prem club will be affected by Afcon, below…
