During Poland’s 2-0 loss against Albania, SAINTS defender Jan Bednarek was taken off early due to a suspected injury.
The international center-back contributed significantly to his nation’s triumph over the Faroe Islands the previous time out.
However, his performance against Albania on Sunday in European Championship qualifying only lasted 34 minutes before he was had to leave the game.
When he was ejected with the score at 0-0, Bednarek was receiving acclaim for his play.
For Saints boss Russell Martin, the 27-year-old has started each game of the Championship season. On Friday, September 15, Leicester City will visit St. Mary’s.

Mason Holgate, an Everton loanee who struggled on his debut in Sunderland’s 5-0 defeat, may also keep his spot, while Shea Charles, 19, is another option.
