Emil Krafth Injury: Still far from return

Krafth (knee) is still not nearing a return, according to manager Eddie Howe. "Emil is further back."

Krafth was thought to be only two weeks away from a return in mid-December, but is still in need of more recovery, with the defender still far from a return. This will likely leave him with a return near the end of January, extending an already lengthy absence. This leaves the club with less depth in the defense, although they will be helped by the soon return of Sven Botman (back).
