Finds bench role Kalimuendo (shoulder) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Bayern.

Impact Kalimuendo finds a bench role for Saturday's clash after recovering from the shoulder injury he suffered against Gladbach. He returned to training on Wednesday but is not yet at full fitness and is eased back into action as a substitute option. Even so his availability remains a positive for the Eagles given his importance since arriving in the winter transfer window.

FEBRUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Trains with team Wednesday Kalimuendo (shoulder) was spotted training with the team Wednesday, the club posted.

Impact Kalimuendo picked up a shoulder injury in Saturday's win over Gladbach, but it turned out to be minor as the striker was back in training with the squad on Wednesday. That is a major boost for the Eagles given he has locked down a starting spot since arriving in the winter transfer window and quickly established himself as a key piece of the attack. He is now expected to slide right back into his usual role in the upcoming fixtures without any real limitations.

FEBRUARY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Injury deemed not serious Kalimuendo (shoulder) has avoided a serious injury and is not expected to miss too much time, according to his club.

Impact Kalimeundo is hitting the sidelines with a shoulder injury but will not see an extended absence, as the injury has not been deemed serious after testing. This will likely leave him with a return near the end of the month or to start March, still needing a bit of time to recover. He has started in three straight, with Ansgar Knauff likely to resume a starting role until Kalimunedo returns.

Joins Eintracht Frankfurt on loan Kalimuendo has moved to Eintracht Frankfurt on loan from Nottingham Forest with an option to make the move permanent at the end of the season, his new team announced Wednesday.

Impact Kalimuendo ended up being a depth asset for his last team with Chris Wood (knee), Igor Jesus and Taiwo Awoniyi being preferred over him. Still, the French striker is a young talent with potential to play a bigger role in the Bundesliga after tallying 17 goals and three assists in 33 games during his 2024/25 stint in Ligue 1 with Rennes. He'll now be in contention with Ansgar Knauff and at some point with Jonathan Burkardt (calf).
