"Image source, Getty Images Injury-hit Aston Villa have suffered another blow, with captain John McGinn facing a number of weeks on the sidelines. The midfielder has not travelled to Turkey for Thursday's Europa League game at Fenerbahce, while goalkeeper Emi Martinez and Boubacar Kamara are also out. Reports suggest key midfielder Kamara is out for the season after coming off with a knee injury against Tottenham last week, with the club yet to provide an update."
"Scotland's McGinn, 31, was forced off early in Sunday's defeat by Everton with a knee injury and boss Unai Emery is yet to discover the extent of the problem. "We are still waiting because he is still visiting some doctors to have a decision [on] what to do," Emery told a news conference in Turkey. "It could be for some weeks or it could be [less], it depends on the doctor and how he's feeling." Martinez has a calf problem while new winger Alysson (knee) has also not travelled with Ross Barkley remaining in Birmingham, although Amadou Onana is available after missing the past four games with a hamstring issue."
