Injury of Aleksandar Mitrovic in World Cup & List of Fulham Injuries
Following his participation at the World Cup despite having an injury, Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic is questionable to face Crystal Palace. During his recent interview, Fulham manager Marco Silva revealed that the Serbian international, who participated in all three of his nation’s games in Qatar, is currently dealing with a foot issue.
In the wake of Serbia’s group-stage elimination from the World Cup, Mitrovic has returned to Fulham. Prior to the World Cup, Mitrovic had been dealing with his foot injury but, he continued to play for his nation and due to forcing his participation, his injury hasn’t healed yet. Owing to this reason, it is likely that the Fulham ace will miss his team’s upcoming game against Crystal Palace.

Three players are questionable for Fulham’s Boxing Day match against Crystal Palace, including Aleksandar Mitrovic. The defensive pairing of Antonee Robinson and Layvin Kurzawa will also need to be evaluated over the next few days, according to head coach Marco Silva, while Neeskens Kebano will be out for the long term due to a major Achilles injury.
If Mitrovic misses Fulham’s next game against Crystal Palace, Carlos Vinicius will play as his replacement. However, Mitrovic is assured to return in time for Fulham’s clash against Southampton on 31st December.
Fulham, as well as English football, will pay respect to the late George Cohen, who passed away at the age of 83, during Fulham’s next two games, which are expected to be somber occasions. When Fulham plays Southampton at home on December 31, they will fully honor Cohen.
