Argentina midfielder Manuel Lanzini is set to miss out on the World Cup after suffering a ruptured anterior knee ligament injury in training.
The news of the knee injury comes as a major blow in the build-up to the tournament, which gets under way in just under a week.
The West Ham star had worked his way into the Albiceleste's first choice team under Jorge Sampaoli and was set to start against Iceland in his country's opening match in Russia.
But he now faces a long spell on the sidelines following the injury as Argentina's preparations for the tournament go from bad to worse.
