Champions League Milestone?

Aston Villa must be compensated for in the Champions League football race, and their task was more difficult after a report on the key blow of the injury so that their most influential player would probably be.

Athletics reported on Thursday that the midfielder Youri Tielemans would miss the last three games in the season with muscle injury.

There is a chance that the Belgian international can present in the final of the season against Manchester United on May 25, but this is considered unlikely to look.

Villa sits seventh in the Premier League with the remaining three games, three points behind the fourth -ranked Newcastle United and Fifth Chelsea, with the first five teams who qualified for the Champions League this season.

Men Unai Emery are facing a tickling trip to Bournemouth on Saturday, and the loss of Tieleman could be a speech impact for the villa with respect to his influence on their season.

The main creator

Tielemans served as the main creative force of the villa 2024-25. Although his seven assists in the Premier League this season is less than that of Morgan Rogers, no player on the Emery team has done more to progress in the game.

Indeed, Tielemans played 59 key passages (a passage resulting in a shot), related to the seventh most beautiful in the league.

No midfielder in Gornji flight has played more passages in the last third than Tieleman 228, while the former man Monaco and Leicester City is a fifth in a division with 234 progressive passages (completed percussion percussions who move the ball towards the opposing line at least 10 meters from his most loyal points or any completed passage).

Tielemans also stood out in conquering the ball. He leased 57 fights, which resulted in his team returned the possession, only six players succeeded.

Excessive work load

Still, for the crucial as Tielemans proved, his injury may be a consequence of excessive relying on his services.

Tielemans and Ollie Watkins are the only villa players who have presented all 35 Premier League games this season. Since Villa reached the semifinals of the FA Cup and the quarterfinals, Tielemans won 52 appearances in 2024 to 25.

That level of time playing obviously took her toll on the Tielemans now on the side, Villa could feel the pain of missing the second consecutive season at the European top table.
