Dutch Eredivisie (the top Dutch football league) clubs Ajax and PSV will be without key strikers for the coming weeks after both players picked up injuries during the international break. Ajax forward Kasper Dolberg sustained a knee injury in training with the Danish national team, with the Danish football association confirming he will be sidelined "for an extended period"; the 28-year-old had contributed three goals and three assists in nine matches this season. PSV's Ricardo Pepi, 23, was forced off after just ten minutes in Sunday's 3–2 away defeat to FC Twente and will miss four upcoming United States international friendlies, with PSV also confirming he will be unavailable for their "coming matches," including a resumption of Eredivisie play against sc Heerenveen on 9 October and a Champions League tie against RB Leipzig four days later.
