Abdukodir Khusanov - Page 2 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Suffers head injury Khusanov (head) was forced off in the 61st minute of Sunday's 2-1 victory against Liverpool due to concussion protocols, according to Talksport.

Impact Khusanov was unable to continue after taking a blow to the head in a collision with Gianluigi Donnarumma around the hour mark, forcing coach Pep Guardiola into a concussion substitution. The center-back saw his run of seven straight matches playing a full 90 minutes across all competitions come to an end and is now considered a doubt for Wednesday's matchup against Fulham. He will be monitored closely over the coming days, but if he is sidelined for any length of time, Ruben Dias is in line to regain a starting spot at the back now that he is fit and available.

Four interceptions in win Khusanov generated two tackles (one won) and four interceptions in Saturday's 2-0 victory versus Wolverhampton.

Returns Wednesday Khusanov started and played 63 minutes during Wednesday's Carabao Cup clash with Swansea.

Impact Khusanov was deemed fit enough to return from a foot injury prior to Wednesday's clash and he did just that. The defender played just over an hour and moved well throughout. He's still working to earn a place in the starting XI, but with City competing in so many competitions he has an easy path to playing time.

OCTOBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Option for Wednesday Khusanov (foot) is an option for Wednesday's match against Swansea City, according to manager Pep Guardiola. "Khusa is ready to play a few minutes tomorrow."

Impact Khusanov was nearing a return last contest but is finally back in the fold for the club, as the defender is fit from his foot injury. The question for the midfielder is how many minutes he will earn in the cup match, as he was deemed ready for a 'few minutes.' That said, he may only serve off the bench and earn limited time, working towards earning back the starting role he held through four of the first six games of the season before injury.

OCTOBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Close to return Khusanov (foot) is close to make his return but isn't ready yet, coach Pep Guardiola said in the press conference. "He's close to coming back, but he's not ready yet. The injury is...

Impact Khusanov won't return against Aston Villa on Sunday as the game comes too soon for him, but the defender is close to making his return to the pitch. He will likely be assessed next week to determine his progress, while the medical staff continues to monitor him closely since the injury is in a delicate area according to coach Pep Guardiola. Matheus Nunes has been the one starting at right-back in his absence.

Bernardo Silva unsure if new-look Man City ready for biggest titles as Rodri returns for Monaco game

Manchester City captain Bernardo Silva believes it’s too early to say if his team can be a contender for the biggest trophies this season

SEPTEMBER 30, 2025 • Associated Press

Set to miss three games Khusanov (foot) is expected to miss the next three games due to injury, coach Pep Guardiola confirmed to the media. "He will be out for the next three games, I think."

Impact Khusanov suffered a foot injury in Sunday's draw against Arsenal and is now set to miss the next three games as the issue turned out to be a serious one. He will be sidelined for the Premier League matches against Burnley and Brentford and the Champions League clash at Louis II against Monaco. The defender is targeting a return after the next international break against Everton on Oct. 18. Khusanov has started the last four games for Manchester City, so his absence will need to be compensated, with Matheus Nunes likely starting at right-back until he returns.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Off at half Khusanov was forced off at halftime of Sunday's match against Arsenal due to an apparent foot injury.

Impact Khusanov had to end his day early Sunday after his foot was stepped on early in the contest, never looking 100 percent again and instead of continuing, he dropped to the sidelines. This will be something to watch for the club, as he has started their past three games and recently took over the role at right-back. He was replaced by Matheus Nunes, a likely replacement if he misses more time alongside Rico Lewis.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Sunday Khusanov (calf) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Manchester United.

Impact Khusanov suffered an injury just ahead of the break but has used the two weeks to recover, with the defender now fit and starting Sunday. The young defender has now earned two straight starts and has already appeared in three of the club's four games this season.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to be available Khusanov (calf) is expected to be available for Sunday's derby against Manchester United, coach Pep Guardiola said in the press conference. "The rest are fine."

Impact Khusanov suffered a calf injury before joining the Uzbekistan national squad but that injury revealed to be minor since he resumed team training and is expected to be available for Sunday's derby against the Red Devils. That said, the young center-back could even return directly to the starting XI if John Stones had to miss the game.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with calf injury Khusanov is dealing with a left calf injury, according to City Xtra.

Impact The center-back won't be able to represent Uzbekistan during the September international window, and it's uncertain if he'll be ready to return for the derby against Manchester United on Sep. 14. The initial recovery timeline provided was two weeks, so Khusanov could have a shot at being available for that matchup.
