Bergvall was forced to leave the field with an ankle injury during Tuesday's UCL match against Borussia Dortmund and will be assessed on Thursday, according to Sam Tabuteau from The Standard.

Bergvall made a rare start in holding midfield but was unable to continue after 62 minutes of play. The youngster is now a doubt for upcoming contests, with the severity of his injury still to be assessed on Thursday. His absence would be a blow to the team's depth, although Conor Gallagher should return to the lineup in his place for Premier League action. Young midfielder Jun'ai Byfield could see increased playing time after decent minutes replacing Bergvall on Tuesday.
