Sarajevo: Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Miralem Pjanic will not play against Belgium for the 2018 World Cup qualifier due to injury.

The Juventus midfielder was hurt on Wednesday night in a Champions League warm up against Olympiakos, and after detailed analysis it was found that the injuries were more severe than first thought.

“Pjanic had problems with the quadriceps, but we hope that it is nothing,” Juventus’ coach, Massimiliano Allegri, said.

“We will wait for a medical check-up to be made. Whether it is going to be today or tomorrow morning, it is certain that the news is not good,” Bosnia manager Mehmed Bazdarevic added on Thursday.
