ADAM SMITH NEWS

Appears off bench Sunday Smith (strain) appeared for 17 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 2-1 FA Cup loss to Manchester City.

Impact Smith was back on the field Sunday, with the defender appearing off the bench for a short appearance to end an absence dating back to Dec. 22. That said, this is great news for the club, as he started in eight straight games before his injury. He will hope to earn that spot back soon, with Lewis Cook seeing the start at right-back while he was out.

Impact Smith is seeing some positive updates from his calf injury after he was able to resume some training this week. He appears to still be out for Sunday's FA Cup match, probably at least a week or two away from a return. This is still good news for the defender, as he has been out since Dec. 22 and started in eight straight games before the injury.

New calf injury Smith (calf) is still not training as he picked up a calf injury, according to manager Andoni Iraola. "He's having some issues with the calf in his recovery; it was a hamstring inj...

Impact Smith originally went to the sideline with a hamstring injury and during his recovery he's now picked up a hamstring concern. The new injury and the complications with it are a big concern for Smith, who has no real definite timeline. It wouldn't be a surprise if he was out after the international break.

No clear timeline Smith (strain) has no clear timeline on his return, according to manager Andoni Iraola."I don't have exactly when he will come back."

Impact Smith is working his way back from a muscular issue, and was set for an extended period on the sideline. That appears to still be the case, with no specific timeline on his return. Smith seems to still be a few weeks from returning at least.

Set for extended absence Smith will be out for "some time" due to a muscular injury, manager Andoni Iraola told media following Thursday's 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace. "[Adam] Smith is injured, he has...

Impact Even though Iraola's statements were pretty vague, it sounds as if Smith will be sidelined for, at least, a couple of games considering the Cherries' packed schedule in the coming weeks. The absence of Smith means Max Aarons could be in line to see additional minutes on the right side of the defense.

Impact Smith has been left out after only going 45 last match, leaving the field at halftime due to an apparent injury. The club didn't give any news on the player leading up to the match, leaving the exact injury undisclosed. He will look to be fit for Sunday's match against Fulham, although that will be a tough feat after missing out Thursday.

Starts consecutive matches Smith notched one cross and four clearances in Saturday's 3-2 defeat to Brentford.

Impact Smith has now started in two straight matches, having started in six of the club's 11 contests. He has been solid when on the field this season, with more of his contribution coming in the defense, notching seven interceptions, nine tackles, 11 crosses and 21 clearances. He should continue in the starting role for most of the club's matches moving forward, as they will be without Julian Araujo for the next three to six months due to hamstring surgery.

Signs one-year extension Smith has extended his contract with Bournemouth, according to the club.

Impact Smith has extended his contract for a further season, signing a one-year contract until the end of the 2026 season. He was a regular starter last season after starting in 25 of his 28 appearances but appears to have been relegated to more of a rotational role this campaign. He will likely remain in a rotational role throughout the remainder of his contract, especially with the defender now 33 years old.

Solid season with Bournemouth Smith recorded two assists and kept six clean sheets in 28 appearances (25 starts) this past season.

He had a solid season on defense too, keeping six clean sheets and recording 49 clearances, 37 tackles, 21 interceptions and 11 blocked shots. The 33-year-old has one year left on his contract but currently looks set to have a similar role with Bournemouth next season.

Starting against West Ham Smith (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Thursday's match against West Ham.

Impact Smith is back on the team sheet after missing the club's previous match against Liverpool, having recovered from an undisclosed issue. However, he is lining up outside of his regular right-back spot, instead taking over in the defensive midfield to face West Ham. He will hope to avoid the injury report from here on out, as he started in seven straight matches before the issue.

Available for West Ham match Smith (undisclosed) is expected to be on the team sheet for Wednesday's match against West Ham, the club reported.

Impact Smith hasn't been on the field since New Year's Eve after going down injured against Tottenham but appears to be fit once again as he is expected to suit up against West Ham. The club will be happy to have the right-back join the team again, as before his injury, he had started in the club's previous seven contests. It is still unsure if the player will be reintroduced into the starting XI immediately or not, as the club may want to be cautious with the player after just becoming healthy.

Won't play in FA Cup Smith (undisclosed) won't be an option for Thursday's FA Cup clash with Swansea. Manager Andoni Iraola told reporters, "We will not recover Adam [Smith], so we will be thin."

Impact Smith will have some extra time to get fully fit before the club's next Premier League clash with West Ham United on Feb. 1. Prior to his absence, the defender had featured in seven straight contests in which he recorded two assists, 10 crosses (seven accurate) and six chances created. With Max Aarons (hamstring) also out, the Cherries may have to turn to youngster James Hill at the right-back spot.

Still unavailable Smith (undisclosed) is out for Sunday's clash with Liverpool, according to manager Andoni Iraola."We have Adam Smith out still as he missed the game against QPR,"

Impact Smith will not be an option to replace the injured Milos Kerkez (foot) meaning Marcus Tavernier could end up as the top choice left-back for Sunday's clash. Lloyd Kelly (hamstring) also has a small chance to return but it seems more likely than not Bournemouth will be left scraping the bottom of the depth chart for a starting full-back Sunday.

Impact Smith has started seven straight matches at right-back for the club, registering two assists, 10 crosses (seven accurate) and six chances created.

Creates assist for match winner Smith delivered an assist, executed three crosses (all accurate) and created two chances in Saturday's 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest.

Impact Smith put in a solid performance on Saturday. The right back scored good defensive points and showed he can make a difference to attack with his crossing accuracy, one of which led to Dominic Solanke's goal winning header. The veteran defender has made nine appearances (six starts) but is taking to the pitch more regularly as the season progresses. This was his second assist in the Cherries last five matches.

Extension triggered Smith's one-year extension was triggered and he will be with Bournemouth through 2025.

Impact Smith got his second start last time out and provided his first assist, and now his stay at the club has been extended. More often than not Smith has been a rotation option in 2023/24, but he still provides some solid depth and is a competent option when needed.

Creates assist in victory over the Blades Smith created an assist and two chances in Saturday's 3-1 win over Sheffield United.

Impact Smith delivered the assist for Marcus Tavernier's second (the Cherries third) goal on Saturday.

Unused against Bournemouth Smith (strain) was an unused substitute during a two-all draw with Bournemouth.

Impact Smith wasn't brought on for any minutes but was deemed fit for the bench before the international break. The defender should now have the chance to get back on the pitch and compete for a more minutes starting with Sunday's clash against Chelsea.

Impact Smith is back in partial team training but is still a heavy doubt for Saturday's trip to Brentford. It's possible the full-back is selected for the bench but anything more than that seems unlikely.

Sidelined against Spurs Smith (strain) isn't ready to return for Saturday's clash with Tottenham, according to manager Andoni Iraola. "We have some injuries but it's difficult for those players to recover...

Impact Smith is still struggling with a musculuar issue and with the good form of Milos Kerkez there is no guarantee Smith comes back to a spot in the starting XI. Smith wasn't mentioned by name by Iraola, meaning a return in the short term, especially before the international break seems unlikely.

AUGUST 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Left out again Saturday Smith (strain) was not included in the match-day squad versus Liverpool on Saturday.

Impact Smith wasn't even mentioned in manager Andoni Iraola's pre-match press conference, so he probably should be considered a doubt heading into Saturday's matchup with Tottenham as well. Once cleared to play, the defender should be in contention for a spot in the starting XI, with Milos Kerkez possibly the odd man out.
