Valeri Bojinov to miss Bulgaria's friendly against Wales

Manchester City striker Valeri Bojinov will miss Bulgaria's friendly against Wales on Wednesday following an injury. He got injured in his knee during his side's 1-0 victory over Manchester United on Sunday and is likely to be out of action for at least three months. The Bulgarian was carried off on a stretcher after falling awkwardly while challenging for a header in the sixth minute of Sunday's derby. Bojinov joined Manchester City from Italian side Fiorentina only a week before the start of the Premier League season. Manchester City top the league with a maximum nine points. He has been included in the Bulgarian squad by coach Dimitar Penev as a replacement of injured captain Dimitar Berbatov. But now Bojinov will miss Bulgaria’s friendly match on Wednesday and almost certainly Bulgaria's Euro 2008 Group G qualifiers against Netherlands and Luxembourg next month.
