  5. CHELSEA
    Hakim Ziyech (SENEGAL)
    Edouard Mendy (MOROCCO)

    Cheikou Kouyate (SENEGAL)
    Jordan Ayew (GHANA)

  1. MANCHESTER CITY
    Riyad Mahrez (ALGERIA)

  2. MANCHESTER UNITED
    Eric Bailly (IVORY COAST)
    Amad Diallo (IVORY COAST)
  3. SOUTHAMPTON
    Moussa Djenepo (MALI)

    William Troost-Ekong (NIGERIA)
    Emmanuel Dennis (NIGERIA)
    Adam Masina (MOROCCO)

    Watford’s fight against relegation will definitely be affected by the loss of FIVE players!
  5. WOLVES
    Willy Boly (IVORY COAST)
    Romain Saiss (MOROCCO)
    Wolverhampton Wolves would be without two players in the 2022 AFCON.
  6. WESTHAM UNITED
    Said Benrahma (ALGERIA)
    Benrahma has chipped in with some important goal contributions so far but will his absence affect David Moyes’ side?
