Every Premier League player at AFCON or Asian Cup and matches missed - key Man Utd, Liverpool and Arsenal men

The Premier League will be without some of its biggest stars in the weeks to come as players jet off on international duty for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) and the Asian Cup this January and February.

Dozens of first-team players will be unavailable for their Premier League sides over the next four rounds of top-flight fixtures. AFCON will take place in the Ivory Coast from January 13 to February 11 while the Asia Cup is being hosted by Qatar between January 12 and February 10.

This month's winter break provides some relief to the clubs most heavily hit by absentees but there are still a number of fixtures to be planned for. How long each star is away on international duty depends on how their national side progresses through the competition.

Defending champions Senegal, Morocco and the Ivory Coast are favourites to win this year's AFCON competition with Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson, Everton's Idrissa Gueye and Manchester United's Sofyan Amrabat all likely to be involved until the latter stages of the competition. Meanwhile, Japan and South Korea are favourites to lift the prestigious Asian Cup with Brighton's Karou Mitoma, Liverpool's Wataru Endo and Spurs' Son Heung-min vying for a place in the final.

Premier League managers are accepting of the tournaments' importance and ready to prepare for upcoming fixtures without some of their key stars. Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp, who will also be without star man Mohamed Salah for a period of time, said: "We knew the Africa Cup of Nations from time to time appears and Mo has to go. We have Endo as a participant of the Asian Cup as well, so it is like it is. We have to deal with it and we will."

Below is a comprehensive list of every Premier League player involved in this year's Africa Cup of Nations and Asian Cup, as well as each club's fixtures between Gameweek 21 (Jan 13-22) and Gameweek 24 (Feb 10-12).
