Kosovo receives good news a month before the play-offs, the Slovak defender is injured and misses the match with the "Dardans"

Fenerbahçe defender Milan Skriniar suffered an injury during the 3-0 home defeat to Nottingham Forest in the first leg of the Europa League play-offs on Thursday.

According to sports media reports, the Slovakian player is expected to be out for about a month and a half. If this deadline is confirmed, he will miss the World Cup play-off match between Slovakia and Kosovo, scheduled to take place on March 26.

So far, the Turkish club has not made an official announcement on the extent of the injury or the exact timing of the defender's recovery.

Skriniar has been a regular starter for Fenerbahçe this season, making 35 appearances in all competitions and scoring two goals. His absence could affect both the Turkish team's plans for European competition and the Slovakian national team's plans ahead of important international challenges.
