Teenager sidelined after pulling hamstring at PSV

Ajax defender Nicolai Boilesen is facing 'several weeks' out after picking up a hamstring injury against PSV Eindhoven on Sunday. The 19-year-old started at the Philips Stadion but lasted only 18 minutes after pulling his hamstring in a tussle with Jeremain Lens. The Denmark international was stretchered off the pitch and replaced by Eyong Enoh. It is as yet unknown exactly how long Boilesen will be unavailable but a report on Ajax's official website states that "the young Dane will be sidelined for several weeks". The left-back will consequently be absent for next weekend's Eredivisie home clash against FC Twente, as well as the UEFA Champions League match away to Real Madrid on September 27th.
