Kalissa faces long lay-off

Members

News round-up: K. Sint-Truidense VV defender Claude Kalissa has broken his leg in two places.

Further examination
The 25-year-old fractured his shinbone and calfbone in the 2006 FIFA World Cup and African Cup of Nations qualifying match against Namibia, and returns to Belgium on Wednesday when he will undergo further tests. However, he is not expected to be available for selection before the winter break. Sint-Truiden are currently seventh in the Belgian First Division.

Letizi return delayed
Paris Saint-Germain FC goalkeeper Lionel Letizi faces at least another two weeks out of action with a calf muscle tear, the club has confirmed. Former French international Letizi suffered the injury last month and may be kept out until early November to ease his recovery. "Lionel Letizi will postpone his return to competition to avoid any further problems and reduce risks of a new injury," PSG said in a statement.

Coach's call
Club coach Vahid Halilhodzic, whose side are fifth in Ligue 1, has denied that PSG may be looking for a new goalkeeper after Letizi's latest injury setback. "We do not want to take any chances with Lionel and just want him to fully recover," he said.
