AFCON (21st Dec thru 18th Jan.).
When will the players report for international duty? FIFA's Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players (RSTP) state that players called up for an international tournament must be released by their clubs and start to travel “no later than Monday morning the week preceding the week” that the tournament begins.
First off the full list (so far) is here : https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c3w9vv22xx0o
Worst hit BY FAR (seven !!! missing) are Sunderland. Unfortunately we play them (3rd Dec.) well before the date players have to report.
Wolves are going to miss 5 - they are well and truly fucked and a cert for relegation. We play them on the 27th Dec.
United will lose 3 players but all potentially part of their starting team. Mbuemo, Diallo and Mazraoui. Unfortunately we don't play them during this period.
Spurs will lose Sarr and Bissouma (if fit to go). We play them on 20th Dec.
Fulham will miss Iwobi, defender Calvin Bassey and winger Samuel Chukwueze. We play them on the 4th Jan.
Burnley wil miss Tuanzebe, striker Lyle Foster and Hannibal Mejbri. We play them on the 18th Jan.
No-one else we play lose more than one and Arsenal none.
