Key striker for All Whites Wood has been named in New Zealand's World Cup squad as the primary attacking threat and designated penalty taker under coach Darren Bazeley, arriving at the tournament after a sea...
Impact Wood managed three goals across 15 Premier League appearances this season, a return hampered by the limited playing time he received at club level. Despite the reduced involvement, his predatory instincts, aerial ability and composure in front of goal remain intact, and his Premier League experience gives him the technical and physical preparation needed to compete against the best defenses in the world. For New Zealand, Wood is the focal point of the attack and the player most likely to produce the decisive moments needed to cause upsets in what will be a demanding group stage. His role as penalty taker adds an additional layer to his threat, and getting him on the ball in dangerous positions will be the primary objective of New Zealand's attacking play throughout the tournament.

Takes two shots Sunday Wood registered two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Bournemouth.
Impact Wood was denied by the woodwork and the opposing goalkeeper during the league finale against Bournemouth. After missing several months with a knee injury, the striker worked his way back into the rotation late in the year and even partnered Igor Jesus in a two-striker formation over the final couple of contests. The veteran generated two goals and no assists over the closing 11-game stretch with his club and is now expected to serve as New Zealand's primary scoring threat in the World Cup.

Scores in smaller role Wood scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Friday's 5-0 victory against Sunderland.
Impact Wood took only two shots during Friday's win, but that was all he needed as he got in on the goalscoring fun. The match was never close and Wood was more than good enough to put Sunderland to the sword. This is just his third goal of the season as injuries and form have limited Wood.

Ready for start Wood (knee) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Burnley.
Impact Wood was an injury concern for the match after suffering an injury in his comeback to play as they took the field for a Europa League match on Thursday, luckily avoiding any setback, and is already an option Sunday. He will need to continue to build fitness as he looks ahead to the World Cup with New Zealand, having a rough season that has only seen him available for nine games due to injury after a career campaign last season.

Chris Wood leaves Forest game with knee problem in blow to New Zealand ahead of World Cup

APRIL 16 • Associated Press
Injured in UEL game Wood left Thursday's UEFA Europa League contest versus Porto shortly after suffering a violent tackle in the first half.
Impact Wood made his second start in three games since returning from a significant knee injury, and there could now be concern of the team losing him again for the final stretch of the season. However, the extent of the new blow remains to be determined. The veteran striker might have little chance of seeing plenty of minutes in the upcoming league meeting with Burnley, in which Igor Jesus would likely lead the front line.

Scoreless in 45 minutes Thursday Wood took one shot (zero on goal) and generated one scoring chance over 45 minutes of play in Thursday's UEFA Europa League visit to Porto.
Impact Wood completed the first half of the UEL quarterfinals opening leg, marking his return to first-team activity following his six-month absence due to a knee injury. He was replaced by Igor Jesus, who should now be his main positional competitor while both Lorenzo Lucca and Taiwo Awoniyi are relegated in the depth chart. The experienced striker will look to see his playing time gradually increased in upcoming weeks and should have chances to add to his season tally of three goals in 10 appearances across all competitions.

Starting vs Porto Wood (knee) is in the starting lineup for Thursday's Europa League match against Porto.
Impact Wood will not only be part of the squad here, but he's going to start and lead the way in this contest. This is Wood's first game since Oct. 18, so it wouldn't be surprising if he has some limitations in terms of his playing time.

Available for Porto game Wood (knee) is expected to be an option for Thursday's UEL meeting with Porto after training with the team and traveling as part of the squad, manager Vitor Pereira confirmed "He i...
Impact Wood should be able to see minutes, making his comeback to first-team action after several months of inactivity. Having already played and scored a goal for the U21 side, the striker is likely to continue a gradual return to normal workload before challenging Igor Jesus for a starting role. The New Zealand international had generated three goals from 17 shots (seven on target) over nine club appearances in the early stages of the season.
APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE
Trains Wednesday Wood (knee) was training Wednesday and is a potential option for Thursday's UEL match against Porto.
Impact Wood has been nearing a return for a hit of time now and looks to be the closest he has been, with the forward able to train Wednesday. This will likely leave him to travel with the squad as well, potentially lining him up to play and make his return as well. He has only two goals in eight appearances this season after a career season with 20 goals in 36 appearances last campaign, so the club is looking to get a boost from his return, as he has not seen the field since October.

Should return against Porto Wood (knee) is targeting a return to the first team in the April 9 Europa League visit to Porto after logging 45 minutes for the Under-21 squad and featuring with Nottingham's B te...
Impact Wood has made big progress in his recovery from a long-term injury, and it seems the next step is for him to get minutes with the main team in European action. The striker scored one goal and created two scoring chances when he played in the first half of a U21 clash with Newcastle on March 20. While the jump to top-division play might be a much tougher challenge for the veteran, he'll likely be involved in a rotation with Igor Jesus, Lorenzo Lucca and Taiwo Awoniyi in upcoming weeks.
APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE
Playing with B Team Wood (knee) will play with Nottingham's B Team in a friendly match against Northampton on Friday, according to John Percy of The Telegraph.
Impact Wood seems to be in the final stages of his recovery, and the plan is for him to play up to 60 minutes in this friendly. The goal for Forest is to have the striker ready for the first leg of the UEFA Europa League quarterfinals against FC Porto on April 9.
MARCH 27 • ROTOWIRE
Return date remains unclear Wood (knee) is uncertain to be available after the March international break, according to manager Vitor Pereira. "I don't know, I don't know. I don't have the information about it...
Impact For what it's worth, Wood is playing with the Forest U21 squad on Friday against Newcastle, so he should be on the verge of returning to action. If he stays healthy and continues his rehab without setbacks, the veteran could be in the mix to face Aston Villa on Sunday, April 12, or perhaps Porto in the Europa League on April 9. Wood hasn't played since Oct. 18 and has been limited to just eight appearances and two goals with Forest in the 2025/26 EPL campaign.
MARCH 20 • ROTOWIRE
No date for return yet Wood (knee) doesn't have a clear timetable to return, manager Vitor Pereira told media during Friday's press conference. "I don't know exactly when he can return. The information I...
Impact According to a report from the New Zealand Herald, Wood could be in line to return at some point in April, but Pereira was cautious about that report. The striker hasn't played since Oct. 18, and with him sidelined, Igor Jesus and Lorenzo Lucca will continue to handle the bulk of minutes at striker, with the Brazilian being the first-choice.
