Reveals timeline after surgery
Kamara is one-third of the way through his rehab following knee surgery, he recently posted on Instagram, pointing to a return near July.
Analysis: This is the biggest update the public has received on Kamara, as Aston Villa never confirmed the specifics of the knee injury. He underwent surgery and it only looks to be a six-month timeline, meaning it wasn't a full ACL tear, or at least that's the assumption. The unfortunate thing is that Kamara seems almost guaranteed to miss the World Cup with it being less than three months away from this update.
Unlikely rest of season
Kamara is likely to miss the rest of the season with a knee injury, according to manager Unai Emery. "Kamara is a long time, I think he's not going to play this season."
Analysis: Kamara's exact knee injury hasn't been revealed, but Emery wasn't too hopeful on a return this season. It puts doubts over Kamara's possible involvement with France in the World Cup, a massive blow given he's arguably in the peak of his career. Since joining Villa, he's struggled with injuries and this one will keep him at less than 1,500 minutes played in the league, having surpassed that number in the prior three campaigns, albeit still below 1,800 in each of them.
