Republic of Ireland captain Seamus Coleman looks set to miss the upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers against France and the Netherlands.
Coleman sustained a knee ligament injury when playing for Everton last May and has been sidelined ever since. The defender looks set to be absent for another six to eight weeks.
The news is a major blow for Ireland with two important games fast approaching.
