Zakaria Eddahchouri - Still weeks away from return Eddahchouri (wrist) remains several weeks away from returning to competitive action due to complications with his injury, according to coach Antonio Hidalgo, per Riazor. "Zaka has...

Impact Eddahchouri continues to recover from surgery on his left wrist after sustaining the injury during training, with coach Hidalgo confirming that the forward is still facing an extended absence. The latest update suggests his recovery has been complicated, ruling out an imminent return despite several weeks having already passed since the initial setback. Eddahchouri has recorded one goal across four substitute appearances this season, and his continued absence further limits Deportivo's attacking depth, particularly with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (knee) also sidelined. Bil Nsongo and Jonathan Asp-Jensen could continue receiving additional opportunities while the forward works toward a full recovery.

Impact Carrillo has fully recovered from the ankle injury that kept him sidelined during the opening weeks of the campaign, having resumed full team training and returned to competitive action in a friendly against Porto. The young midfielder had initially been deemed fit in early September, but the coaching staff opted to delay his return to avoid unnecessary risks. Despite making progress during the international break, Carrillo has yet to log a single minute in La Liga this season. He will now look to work his way into the first-team rotation, although his lack of competitive playing time suggests he could initially be limited to a reserve role.

Impact Amatucci was brought onto the field for Deportivo in the 57th minute, having a rough day from the bench after receiving a straight red card in the 90th minute due to a foul. He would only record a cross and a tackle won outside of the red card, not his best performance in the loss. He will now be set to miss Friday's match against Levante and return to face Atletico Madrid on October. 24, although he could face a longer suspension following a review by the league.

Impact Eddahchouri faces an extended absence after suffering a wrist injury during training that required surgery, with manager Hidalgo ruling out an early return despite initially considering the possibility. The forward has made four league appearances off the bench this season, recording one goal, three shots, one cross and one chance created. With Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (knee) also sidelined, Deportivo will have to rely on its academy players to provide additional attacking depth. Bil Nsongo and Jonathan Asp-Jensen could benefit from increased opportunities while Eddahchouri works toward his recovery.

Lorenzo Amatucci - Cleared to return to action Amatucci (groin) is available for Sunday's La Liga clash against Real Sociedad after recovering from his injury, although his playing time could be limited, according to coach Anto...

Impact Amatucci has overcome the groin issue that kept him sidelined for several weeks, having recently resumed training with Deportivo. Manager Hidalgo confirmed the midfielder is ready to play again but acknowledged that his minutes will need to be assessed following his lengthy absence. Amatucci had been a regular starter before the injury and should gradually work his way back into the starting lineup, though an appearance off the bench could be the preferred option against Real Sociedad.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang - Targeting mid-November return Aubameyang (knee) has progressed to gym work roughly two weeks after undergoing meniscus surgery and is expected to resume light running within the next 10 to 14 days, with a retur...

Impact Aubameyang is making steady progress in his recovery after undergoing arthroscopic surgery to address a meniscus injury suffered against Betis, having moved beyond the initial rest phase to begin cycling and pool exercises aimed at strengthening his knee. Deportivo La Coruna are taking a cautious approach and don't expect the striker back before the November international break, making the Nov. 22 clash against Alaves a potential return date. The veteran is expected to miss around five league matches, leaving a significant void in the attack after opening the campaign with five goals and two assists across seven appearances. Jonathan Asp-Jensen figures to remain a leading candidate for increased minutes while Aubameyang works his way back to full fitness.

Lorenzo Amatucci - Back in training Amatucci (groin) was back in training ahead of Sunday's match against Real Sociedad, according to Jose Duran of Comuniate.

Impact Amatucci was back in the mix for Deportivo after dealing with some discomfort that held him out of some friendlies over the break. This is good news for the club just ahead of them resuming play, as the midfielder has been a starter this campaign. That said, if he is deemed fit heading into Sunday, he will likely return to a starting role.

Lorenzo Amatucci - Uncertain status vs. Real Sociedad Amatucci (groin) is uncertain to be available for Sunday's game at Real Sociedad, according to Luis de la Cruz of Diario AS.

Impact Amatucci has been a key player for Deportivo in the early stages of the 2026/27 season, and his absence could be greatly felt since the Riazor outfit is already without another key midfielder in Marc Casado (collarbone). Amatucci missed the last league match before the break due to a groin problem and flu-like symptoms, but he's yet to train with the rest of the group since then and hasn't even stepped on the pitch in the last two weeks. Not having Amatucci would be a huge blow for Deportivo, with Noe Carrillo and possibly Adria Altimira as options to take his place in the middle of the park.

Bil Nsongo - Scores with Cameroon Nsongo scored a goal for Cameroon in Saturday's 1-0 win over Ivory Coast.

Impact Nsongo logged 81 minutes in Saturday's win and notched the lone goal of the match for the Indomitable Lions. This goal should be a huge confidence booster for Nsongo, who has yet to find the back of the net or deliver an assist for Deportivo in the 2026/27 Liga campaign.

Noe Carrillo - Fully integrated into first-team training Carrillo recovered from an ankle sprain before the international break but is now fully integrated into the training sessions, so he should be an option for the match against Real...

Impact Carrillo was deemed fully fit to play in early September, but he wasn't able to return to play since it was "too soon", according to reserve coach Manuel Pablo. The young midfielder is now set to return to the squad, and he could be in the mix for minutes once the league campaign resumes on Sunday, Oct. 11. Carrillo has yet to log a single minute in the 2026/27 campaign.

OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Ximo Navarro - Steady option at right-back Navarro has been a steady option at right-back for Deportivo in the early stages of the 2026/27 season.

Impact Navarro was an unused substitute in the 1-0 loss to Sevilla on Sept. 16, but other than that, he's been a regular starter on the right side of Deportivo's defensive line. Through six starts and five appearances in which he went the full 90, Navarro has racked up 26 clearances, 11 crosses, 15 tackles and nine interceptions.

Bil Nsongo - No goals or assists so far Ndongo has yet to record a goal or assist for Depor this season.

Impact Nsongo contributed six goals and one assist across 17 appearances for Deportivo in the 2025/26 season, but he's yet to record a goal contribution for the club in the 2026/27 Liga season. He's been starting regularly, so, so goals should come soon .. especiallly after his four-shot effort aganst Betis.

Lucas Noubi - Five starts in first seven matches Noubi has started in five of Deportivo's first seven matches in the current league season.

Impact Noubi started and played the full 90 in each of Deportivo's first five matches of the 2026/27 season, but the 21-year-old Belgian defender has been relegated to the bench in the last two. Noubi might rotate at center-back, but even if he plays regularly, Deportivo's defensive woes limit his upside considerably.

SEPTEMBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Miguel Loureiro - Seeing limited minutes Loureiro has started in just two of Deportivo's seven matches in the 2026/27 LaLiga season thus far.

Impact Loureiro was in the XI for the Aug. 24 match against Malaga and the Sept. 16 game against Sevilla, but he's either been an unused sub or has played off the bench in the other five. Loureiro was a regular starter for Deportivo in the 2025/26 Liga2 campaign, appearing in 38 matches and playing both at center-back (26 games) and right-back (12 outings), but he hasn't enjoyed the same playing time in the top flight.

Zakaria Eddahchouri - Undergoes surgery Eddahchouri (wrist) has begun his recovery process following successful surgery on his left wrist, the club reported Friday.

Impact Eddahchouri will spend a spell on the sidelines after sustaining the injury during a training session, leaving his team without another attacking option while Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (knee) is out as well. Prior to this issue, the 26-year-old made four league appearances as a substitute, racking up one goal along with three shots, one cross and one chance created over that span. Bil Nsongo and Jonathan Asp-Jensen appear to be the main beneficiaries in terms of playing time going forward.

Noe Carrillo - Too soon for first team return Carrillo remains part of the first team dynamic but it's too soon for a return, according to reserve coach Manuel Pablo, per Anton Lopez Bonome of Riazor. "It's early, besides he's...

Impact Carrillo is a product of Deportivo's Fabril reserve side, is working his way back into contention amid the club's list of absences in central midfield, though his path to first team involvement remains gradual, and Deportivo will only be able to call on him at specific moments given his registration with the reserve squad.

Zakaria Eddahchouri - Suffers wrist injury Eddahchouri suffered a wrist injury that will require surgery and is out for the time being, according to Juan Yordi of MARCA.

Impact Eddahchouri suffered the injury during Thursday's training session, and while the recovery timeline is unknown, the need for surgery means he's set to miss a few games, even in the best-case scenario. According to Yordi, Eddahchouri is set to miss several weeks at the earliest, though everything will depend on how quickly the wrist heals in the recovery process.

SEPTEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang - Undergoes successful knee surgery Aubameyang (knee) underwent successful surgery Thursday, he shared on his social media, according to Massilia Zone.

Impact Aubameyang had been set for the procedure after suffering discomfort in the match against Betis, needing to repair his LCL, with his recovery timeline ranging anywhere from six to eight weeks up to three to six months depending on the extent of the repair. This is a significant blow for Deportivo La Coruna given he had contributed five goals and two assists across seven appearances this season, and Jonathan Asp-Jensen figures to be the likely replacement while Aubameyang begins his recovery process.

SEPTEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang - Set for knee surgery Aubameyang is set for knee surgery and could miss three to six months, according to his club.

Impact Aubameyang is set for time on the sideline after suffering some discomfort in the match against Betis, as the forward will need to repair his LCL. His return will depend on the extent of his operation, as he could miss only six to eight weeks, although if the specialists decide to repair and suture the tendon, he could face three to six months out. It doesn't help that the forward is also 37, so his recovery could take longer, no matter what. With five goals and two assists in seven appearances (six starts) this season, this will likely be a detrimental loss to the club, with Jonathan Asp-Jensen as a likely replacement.

SEPTEMBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Marc Casado - Undergoes surgery for collarbone fracture Casado underwent surgery at Hospital HM Modelo in A Coruna, performed by traumatologist Rafael Arriaza, for a fracture in his right collarbone, with his recovery progress set to de...

Impact Casado had been feared to have suffered the injury after Sunday's match, with coach Antonio Hidalgo saying at the time it that is looked bad pending further testing, and this surgery now confirms the diagnosis. Luismi Cruz figures to reenter the starting lineup in his absence, with Diego Villares also likely to see more playing time as Casado begins what could be a recovery of around three months.

SEPTEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Lorenzo Amatucci - Misses due to adductor issue Amatucci missed Sunday's 1-1 draw against Real Betis due to workload management, according to coach Antonio Hidalgo. "Amat had what we talked about a bit regarding load management,...

Impact Amatucci had been an ever presence in the midfield for Depor this season, contributing one assist, three chances created, 18 tackles and 17 clearances in six La Liga appearances. This precautionary absence does not appear to be serious, and his return should come once he has had sufficient time to recover during the international break.

SEPTEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Luismi Cruz - Flurry of service off the bench Luismi Cruz had nine crosses (four accurate) and seven corners in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Betis.

Impact Cruz put up impressive service numbers in just 25 minutes of action, though it didn't translate to an assist for the attacker. If he gets moved back to the starting lineup, he should be able to translate this volume into a good offensive showing against Real Sociedad. Real Sociedad have allowed 13 goals already across seven LaLiga games this season.
