Ingebrigtsen expresses disappointment over Kerr's absence

Jakob Ingebrigtsen has expressed disappointment regarding Josh Kerr's absence from the European Championships. Ingebrigtsen, who recently won the 5,000m gold in Birmingham after returning from injury, commented on the missed opportunity to compete against his rival.

Kerr, who set a new mile world record of 3:42.66 in July and won gold at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, opted out of the Championships to manage his workload, according to reports. This decision has reignited discussions about the impact on athletics.
