A "storm of injuries" strikes the English attackers ... and threatens Euro 2020 opportunities
Two serious injuries, Fardi and Kane
The most prominent 4 English strikers were seriously injured, in a short period of time, to give way to foreign strikers in the English Premier League.
Harry Kane, captain of the England national team and Tottenham Hotspur's first star, was seriously injured by a back thigh muscle, at the end of last year, to end his season immediately.
This injury will greatly affect Tottenham's chances of reaching the Champions League this season, and raises an important question about Kane's readiness to participate in the European Cup.
As for Manchester United, his problems were exacerbated at the beginning of the year, by hitting his first scorer, Marcus Rashford, in the back, which means that he has been out of play for at least two months.
Manchester United lost the first two matches without Don Rashford, to clarify the image of the team shaken in the league, which could mean losing the dream of reaching the fourth place, and participating in the Champions League.
For his part, Chelsea suffered a similar blow, wounding his top scorer Tammy Abraham, who was running a strong season with "Blues."
Abraham's injury will leave him out of action for months, and may affect his participation in Euro 2020, and could lead to contributing to the team's defeat against Bayern Munich by facing the round of 16 of the Champions League.
The Premier League's top scorer and best striker in England this season, Jimmy Vardy, was also injured during his team's Leicester City match against West Ham.
Despite coach Brendan Rogers' assurances that the injury is not a cut in the groin, his doubts remain about his return, which may last for at least a month.
With Vardi injured, he opened the door to foreign attackers to overtake him in the scorers' race, led by the Leicester superstar with 16 goals.
Argentine striker Sergio Aguero did not wait much to start threatening the Vardi Prize, as he scored 6 goals in 3 games, leading him to goal number 15, lagging behind Vardi by one goal.
The injury will also give the English striker Danny Ings and the Gabonese striker Pierre Emerica Aubameyang the opportunity to catch up with Fardi, as only two goals are separated from the Leicester goalscorer in the list of scorers.
The most important question remains the readiness of the attackers for the European Cup that kicks off next June, and the impact of these sudden injuries on the "Three Lions" chances of achieving its first European championship in history.
