Caleb Ekuban - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Wins one tackle in Atalanta match Ekuban (thigh) drew one foul and had one tackle (one won) in 34 minutes in Saturday's 0-0 draw with Atalanta.

Impact Ekuban saw decent playing time off the bench but didn't pick up stats on the offensive end. He'll try to challenge Vitinha, Jeff Ekhator and Lorenzo Colombo, who all started in this one, in the last three matches. He has scored once and posted two shots (two on target), one cross (zero accurate) and one tackle (one won) in his last five cameos.

Good to go for Atalanta tilt Ekuban (undisclosed) "has practiced with us for the past two days and is fit for Saturday," coach Daniele De Rossi stated.

Impact Ekuban will make a quick return after sitting out one match due to muscular discomfort and will split minutes with Vitinha, Jeff Ekhator and Loreno Colombo in the two-man front-line. He has been deployed as a sub in his last four appearances, scoring once and adding two shots (two on target) and one cross (zero accurate).

Ruled out for Como fixture Ekuban hasn't been selected for Sunday's clash with Como.

Impact Ekuban suffered an unspecified physical problem in training and will be re-evaluated next week. He generally split duties with Vitinha, Jeff Ekhator and Lorenzo Colombo in a couple of spots in the frontline. Maxwell Cornet (thigh) is also an option following an injury.

Scores game winner Ekuban scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Sunday's 2-1 victory over Sassuolo.

Impact Ekuban would appear off the bench with 35 minutes to play and end up being the hero of Sunday's outing, as the attacker found the back of the net in the 84th minute for the game winner. He is now up to four goals on the season, also adding one assist. He still has yet to register 1,000 minutes of play this season, as he has only started in six of his 27 appearances, appearing to be a decent shout when given a bit of time on the field.

He has scored twice in his last five appearances, adding seven shots (three on target), two key passes and one cross (zero accurate).

Scores as substitute in win Ekuban scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 3-2 victory over Bologna.

Impact Ekuban logged limited playing time after recovering from a thigh injury, though that didn't stop him from standing out with a great finish with his back to the goal in the 78th minute of the weekend's game. The attacker has now scored twice and assisted once over 17 Serie A matches (three starts) in the current campaign. He's not a safe starter but may now put some pressure on Vitinha, Jeff Ekhator and Lorenzo Colombo in the race for attacking spots.

JANUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Available against Bologna Ekuban (thigh) has been named in Genoa's squad list for Saturday's tilt versus Bologna.

Impact Ekuban has recovered from a thigh injury that cost him three matches and will be an extra option up front, in addition to Vitinha, Lorenzo Colombo and Jeff Ekhator. He has been used as a super-sub for most of the campaign. He has assisted once and notched three shots (one on target), two chances created and one assist in his last five showings (one start).

JANUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers thigh injury Ekuban sustained a left biceps femoris strain during his cameo against Pisa, Primo Canale reported.

Impact Ekuban came off the bench after back-to-back starts and will have to sit out multiple fixtures, as he's expected back in late January. Vitinha, Lorenzo Colombo and Jeff Ekhator will divvy up the minutes in the attack going forward.

JANUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Assists as substitute Ekuban assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Monday's 2-1 win over Udinese.

Impact Ekuban was subbed on for just 26 minutes and registered his first assist, setting up the winning goal. The forward has started only once this season and made 11 appearances off the bench, but despite limited minutes he has attempted 11 shots and created seven chances, totaling one goal and one assist.

DECEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Takes three shots off bench in loss Ekuban had three off-target shots during Wednesday's 2-0 loss against Cremonese.

Impact Ekuban was brought off the bench as usual, taking the pitch as part of a double substitution in the 52nd minute, and couldn't help his team finding the back of the net but it wasn't for lack of trying as the forward still posted a team high in shots attempted. Ekuban has looked better in recent games but he still needs to prove he can score at a higher rate (one goal over eight appearances this season) to start receiving more fantasy consideration.

OCTOBER 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Takes three shots in Parma game Ekuban drew two fouls and had three shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Parma.

Impact Ekuban drew his first start of the year and posted a new season high in shots but wasn't super threatening. He's part of a three-man committee for the no.9 role along with Lorenzo Colombo and Jeff Ekhator, who has been the most effective so far. He has scored once and added five attempts (two on target), four key passes and two crosses (zero accurate) in the last five tilts.

OCTOBER 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Scores equalizing goal Ekuban scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 1-1 draw against Como.

Makes cameo versus Juventus Ekuban (thigh) had one off-target shot and one interception and drew one foul in 12 minutes in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Juventus.

Impact Ekuban came off the bench late after recovering from a thigh injury. He'll split minutes with Lorenzo Colombo, Vitinha and Jeff Ekhator in the no.9 role for most of the campaign and will occasionally get minutes on the wings in more aggressive formations.

AUGUST 31, 2025 • Associated Press

Bench spot Sunday Ekuban (thigh) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Juventus.

Impact Ekuban was expected to be an option Sunday and is, with the attacker fit enough to see a spot on the bench during his return. He is likely to be more of a depth option this season and will see his time from the bench, starting in three of his 18 appearances last campaign.

AUGUST 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Fit for Juventus tilt Ekuban (thigh) "has recovered and will be with the team Sunday," coach Patrick Vieira announced.

Impact Ekuban has managed to speed up his recovery and will be back a little earlier than anticipated after sitting out the opener. He'll challenge Albert Gronbaek, Valentin Carboni, Vitinha, Lorenzo Colombo and Jeff Ekhator since he can play in multiple roles, but he generally operated as a super-sub last season. He tallied one goal, three assists, 18 shots (six on target) and eight key passes in 18 matches (three starts) in 2024/2025.

AUGUST 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Nursing muscular problem Ekuban is poised to be unavailable versus Lecce in two weeks due to a flexor strain, Il Secolo XIX relayed.

Impact Ekuban sustained the problem about a week ago and is believed to have an outside shot to be ready for the second tilt of the season versus Juventus. Vitinha, Lorenzo Colombo and Jeff Ekhator will absorb his minutes.

AUGUST 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Deployed late versus Atalanta Ekuban (thigh) had one key pass and committed two fouls in 13 minutes in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Atalanta.

Impact Ekuban saw limited minutes and didn't leave his mark in his return from a four-game absence. He could start over Andrea Pinamonti if the coach decides to turn to his backups in the last game. He has recorded one assist, three shots (one on target), two chances created and one cross (one accurate) in his last five displays (one start).

MAY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Fit for bench Ekuban (thigh) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Atalanta.

Impact Ekuban is seeing a return as expected Saturday, with the attacker seeing a bench spot to face Atalanta. This is good news, but he will likely remain in a bench role moving forward, as he has only started in three of his 16 appearances this season.

MAY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Returning against Atalanta Ekuban (undisclosed) "will be part of the squad Saturday," coach Patrick Vieira announced.

Impact Ekuban has shaken off a muscular injury that cost him the past four matches and will eventually make a cameo off the bench as he has routinely done throughout the season. He has assisted once and logged three shots (one on target), one key pass, one cross (one accurate) and two clearances in his last five showings (one start).

MAY 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Absent against Como Ekuban (undisclosed) won't recover for Sunday's meeting with Como, coach Patrick Vieira stated.

Impact Ekuban picked up a muscular injury before the last game and will stay on the shelf, although the gaffer didn't offer updates on his timetable. Andrea Pinamonti and Jeff Ekhator will again be the lone options for the no.9 position.
