Southampton's Fullback Cédric has not recovered in time to make Sunday's trip to Bournemouth, the player has been ruled out, Mauricio Pellegrino confirmed.
Shane Long, who is suffering with a calf problem, is a doubt but Pellegrino believes that the striker will continue to be monitored in the lead up to this weekend's Premier League action.
Pellegrino said: "Cédric will not be ready for Sunday, and Shane Long has got an issue in his calf. So we've got some players with a problem today.
"Maybe tomorrow we'll review, and we'll decide how he [Long] is. The doctor will check, but today he couldn't train, it is a little bit sore in the calf. Tomorrow we'll make a decision.
"Most of my players are ready to compete and with the fixture calendar we have in the next two months, that is good news for us."
