Norwich striker Toure out for at least four weeks — and more

Norwich City forward Mohamed Toure has been ruled out for four to six weeks with a groin injury, leaving the Canaries with a dearth of fit strikers.

The 21-year-old has scored five goals and registered one assist in five games in all competitions since signing from Danish club Randers on 1 February.

But the Australia international limped off after just nine minutes of the 2-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday on Wednesday night.

With Ante Crnac and top goalscorer Jovon Makama both ruled out for the rest of the season and Josh Sargent completing his move to MLS club Toronto FC, it leaves Mathias Kvistgaarden as Norwich's only available senior striker.

Kvistgaarden has already missed seven league games with injury this season and replaced Toure at Hillsborough before himself being subbed off for defender Jakov Medic, who can operate as a makeshift nine.

"I need to be very pragmatic now about what to do to get results because at the end of the day, it's about that," Norwich head coach Philippe Clement told BBC Radio Norfolk.

"In May, nobody can think about 'OK, we missed that moment of the season so many players or in that position we didn't have players'.

"It will be about how many points we have and that's football and that's the reality. So we need to be pragmatic to get, in the best ways, the points."

Clement said there are no strikers in the club's academy who are "up to Championship level" and challenged the rest of the squad to contribute with goals.

"The way I want to play football is that the danger comes from everywhere," Clement added.

"So not only from the striker to score goals, but also from our wingers, our midfielders, our full-backs, our centre-halves even.

"Several players are scoring goals now who never scored before for the club and we need to continue that way.

"That's also a big strength that you need to have as a club, that you're not so predictable for your opponents.

"If they stop one, two players, they stop your offensive work. So now we cause more problems for our opponents because the danger can come from everywhere."

PSG vs Chelsea in the Champions League round of 16: Luis Enrique gives his take

After the Champions League round of 16 draw, PSG have been paired with Chelsea this Friday. Luis Enrique has shared his thoughts on the upcoming clash.

Speaking at a press conference, Luis Enrique weighed in on what promises to be a blockbuster tie.

"Chelsea, it's a fascinating draw, as always. I'm very pleased. It'll be exciting to play against an English team, but there's no sense of revenge. These are different competitions. This draw defines our path, and we're used to it. We're the reigning champions. The pressure is on the other teams. We like being in the bracket—it shows we're qualified. Everyone knows we can win the Champions League, but to do that we need to improve. We're aware of that. We have to adapt to the current circumstances. What makes me optimistic is my team's ability to deal with all the challenges that come our way," said the Spaniard.

Despite a tough qualification against AS Monaco (3-2, 2-2) in the play-offs, the PSG coach has no doubts about his squad.
