Feyenoord may not be able to call on Anis Hadj-Moussa on Sunday morning in the important match against FC Utrecht. The attacker is missing from trainer Robin van Persie’s selection due to an injury, the Instagram account claims KuipAlert. For the people of Rotterdam, this would mean the next downer in the current disaster season.
With the alleged absence of Hadj-Moussa, Feyenoord loses an important creative impulse. The Algerian has already scored six goals and four assists in the competition this season. Now that the team from South Rotterdam has to defend second place against pursuers NEC and Ajax, the loss of the winger comes at an extremely inopportune time. Because Gonçalo Borges is suspended, Feyenoord only has Aymen Sliti and Leo Sauer as wingers.

The new medical setback is causing some unrest around De Kuip. According to KuipAlert seems to “find Feyenoord’s fate more and more often”. Hadj-Moussa’s injury is not seen as an incident, but as part of a bigger picture. “It is yet another muscle that snaps in a season that is already rattling on all sides,” is the harsh conclusion about the current physical state of the selection.
KuipAlert returned to the reporting surrounding Hadj Moussa on Saturday evening. The Algerian appears to be fit enough to start against FC Utrecht and has no injuries. According to the account, Sliti is heading for a starting spot and Sauer is on the bench.
