According to the Daily Mail, Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins could miss his side's upcoming Premier League clash against Nottingham Forest after picking up a knock in the Champions League match against RB Leipzig.
As a result, the forward is reportedly dealing with a potential thigh injury, raising concerns over his availability. The 28-year-old has been in exceptional form this season, playing a key role in Villa's domestic and European campaigns.
Medical staff are currently assessing the extent of the injury, and while no official update has been provided, there are concerns he may not recover in time for the weekend.
