Once again, a player looks set to return injured from international duty to Red Bull Salzburg.

After captain Nikolas Veratschnig suffered a collateral ligament injury during the previous international break, Haris Tabakovic is the latest player to be struck down.

In Bosnia and Herzegovina's UEFA Nations League away match in Sweden, which ended in a 3-2 defeat, the striker had to be substituted off injured shortly before half-time.

"He heard a noise"

"Tabakovic's lateral knee ligament—we have to get that examined tomorrow. He heard a noise, and we hope everything will be okay," Bosnia national team head coach Sergej Barbarez said at the post-match press conference.

Salzburg have generally been plagued by injuries recently. Defensive leader Kevin Boma will remain sidelined for the "Bulls" for some time with a calf injury, but there is good news to report regarding Veratschnig, Dominik Schmid, and Enrique Aguilar.
