Dominic Solanke - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Returns to bench Solanke (ankle) is on the bench for Saturday's opener against Brentford.

Impact Solanke has not played since Aug. 1 against Chelsea due to ankle discomfort that kept him out of the club's last three matches. He has made encouraging progress in recent days and returned to training, but he will only be available from the bench Saturday as expected following the layoff. He will look to push Richarlison for the starting role in the coming matches.

Available against Brentford Solanke (ankle) is back available and included in Tottenham's group for Saturday's match against Brentford, according to coach Roberto De Zerbi. "Solanke inside the list."

Impact Solanke's return caps his recovery from an ankle issue that first surfaced as discomfort in training and kept him out of the club's last three matches. He'd already been shown taking encouraging steps forward in recent training footage, and his inclusion now confirms that progress has held. As Tottenham's first-choice striker, his availability is a major boost for manager Roberto De Zerbi's attacking options, though a start still looks unlikely given the layoff, with Richarlison probably leading the line instead.

Impact Solanke has been absent since Tottenham's August first friendly against Chelsea, with an ankle issue that first surfaced as discomfort in training and led the club to withhold him as a precaution from an earlier friendly against Getafe, then also missed out against Hoffenheim, stretching his run of missed matches to three and deepening concern given how last season unfolded, when the same type of fitness setback limited him to just 15 appearances and three goals. The training footage now offers the clearest indication yet that he's moving in the right direction. As Tottenham's first-choice striker, getting Solanke back involved matters significantly for Roberto De Zerbi's attacking options heading into the Premier League opener. The striker will likely need to continue building up his workload and complete full group training without any reaction to the ankle before being cleared for match action, with a place on the bench against Brentford appearing realistic if his progress continues, while Richarlison could start up front.

Impact Solanke had already been ruled out of an earlier friendly against Getafe as a precaution after feeling ankle discomfort in training, and this continued absence adds to worries after a previous campaign already derailed by fitness setbacks that limited him to just 15 appearances and three goals. Richarlison figures to continue leading the line in his absence, and further clarity on Solanke's status will be needed as Tottenham approaches the start of the new 2026/27 Premier League season.

Impact Solanke's previous campaign was derailed by fitness setbacks, limiting him to just 15 appearances and three goals as he struggled to string together consistent minutes. When healthy, he remains Tottenham's first choice striker and a proven finisher at Premier League level, making this latest scare worth monitoring closely. Richarlison is expected to lead the line in his absence until Solanke's return. Solanke is expected to be reassessed as the club continues preseason preparations.

Makes bench Sunday Solanke (hamstring) is on the bench for Sunday's clash against Everton.

Impact Solanke recovered from the hamstring injury that had forced him to miss the last three fixtures, earning a spot in the squad after manager Roberto De Zerbi confirmed he was fit enough to feature for the season finale. The forward has started 11 of his 15 appearances this season, bagging three goals, but the club opted to manage his return carefully with a bench role rather than throwing him straight back into the starting lineup after the hamstring scare. His impact from the substitutes bench is expected to come later in the match as Tottenham close out the campaign.

Option to face Everton Solanke (hamstring) is an option for Sunday's match against Everton, according to manager Roberto De Zerbi.

Impact Solanke had to miss the midweek clash for Tottenham this week after a hamstring injury, but is back in contention for the season finale, with the forward deemed fit enough to play. However, it remains in question if he will be able to start, with that being the only uncertainty or the forward. He has started in 11 of his 15 appearances this season while bagging three goals, so he will hope to be given the starting role, or he will be expected to feature off the bench later in the match.

Out Tuesday, hopeful for Sunday Solanke (hamstring) will miss Tuesday's clash against Chelsea but could return for Sunday's final fixture against Everton, according to coach Roberto De Zerbi. "Solanke is not good...

Impact Solanke's continued absence is a frustrating development after he had been targeting a return for Tuesday's fixture, though De Zerbi's comments offer some encouragement heading into the final weekend of the season. The striker has had a difficult year with injuries, and the club is clearly unwilling to rush him back before he is fully ready. Mathys Tel, Randal Kolo Muani and Richarlison are expected to continue covering in the attack for Tuesday's clash against Chelsea.

Eyeing Chelsea match for return Solanke (hamstring) is eyeing a return when facing Chelsea on May 19, according to manager Roberto De Zerbi. "He's improving quickly, I don't know for this game, we hope for the ne...

Impact Solanke is set to miss another match as he deals with a hamstring injury, but will not remain out the rest of the season, instead expected to return when facing Chelsea next week. He will still need to train and continue to boost his fitness, as they will want to make sure the forward is completely fit after a year full of injuries. He has been a starter as of late, so expect Mathys Tel, Randal Kolo Muani and Richarlison to start in the attack due to his absence.

Out for Villa, return unknown Solanke (hamstring) is out for Sunday's match against Aston Villa and is questionable to return this season, according to manager Roberto De Zerbi. "I don't know yet [if he will be...

Impact Solanke is still struggling with a hamstring injury and is at least out for a further match as he tries for a return. However, there are bigger question marks, as the forward is even questionable to return at all this campaign. This could be a brutal end of the season for a forward who has struggled with injuries all season, playing in only 19 games all season.

Dominic Solanke's Season In Doubt Amid Tottenham's Relegation Battle

Tottenham Hotspur striker Dominic Solanke could reportedly be sidelined for the remainder of the Premier League season.

APRIL 29 • FOXNEWS.COM

Status unclear Solanke's involvement in upcoming contests remains in doubt due to a hamstring blow, Matt Law of The Telegraph reports.

Impact Solanke could miss the final stretch of the season, although the severity of his injury has yet to be revealed by the club. The striker has scored six goals over 17 matches played across all competitions since recovering from a previous issue in January. If he stays on the sidelines, his place in the starting lineup could be taken by Richarlison.

Forced off injured Solanke was forced off in the first half of Saturday's clash against Wolves due to an apparent injury.

Impact Solanke was forced off in the 40th minute of Saturday's clash against Wolves due to an apparent injury to his left leg and will undergo further tests in the coming days to determine the severity of the issue. The forward had started the last four Premier League matches, so his potential absence would be a significant blow, while Richarlison is the leading candidate to replace him up front if he is ruled out.

Four shots Sunday Solanke generated four shots (two on goal) in Sunday's 1-0 defeat against Sunderland.

Impact Solanke took a season-high four shots Sunday, but he still went scoreless in his third consecutive match. He also put two shots on target in his second match in a row. Solanke will need to rediscover his form quickly with Spurs in the relegation zone with just six matches to play.

Returns from hip issue Solanke had two shots (two on goal) in Sunday's 3-0 loss against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Solanke got the start and played 90 minutes after missing out against Atleti with a hip issue. The fact he went the full 90 comfortably is a good sign that the injury wasn't a major concern. He didn't have a particularly productive day, but fitness has been the concern for Solanke this season, and he looked fit throughout the match.

Starting to face Nottingham Solanke (hip) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Solanke is back fit this week after a slight scare due to a hip injury, with the forward instead earning a starting role immediately. Luckily for the forward, he only misses one match due to the hip injury, set to return to starting time. He does have a goal in two of his past three appearances, hoping to continue the decent trend Sunday.

Winners and losers as Thomas Tuchel names Man City's Phil Foden in 35-player England squad - but Trent Alexander-Arnold still can't make the cut

Option for Sunday Solanke (hip) is an option for Sunday's match against Nottingham Forest, according to manager Igor Tudor.

Impact Solanke had to miss out midweek in UCL play with a hip injury, but has made a quick turnaround, as the forward is not set to play against Forest. This will add another attacking option to the club, starting in the majority of his appearances since returning in January. That said, the club will hope he is fit enough to start immediately and add to his three league goals this season, with Randal Kolo Muani or Richarlison as other options at forward.

Impact Solanke is targeting a return for Sunday's clash against Nottingham Forest after missing Wednesday's Champions League second leg against Atletico Madrid due to a hip injury. The forward remains in competition with Richarlison and Randal Kolo Muani for the starting role up front, though he appears slightly ahead in the pecking order. However, the team's poor run of results has led to frequent rotation as they look to find the right formula in their fight against relegation. He has tallied six goals in 15 appearances across all competitions this season.

Scores in Tuesday's loss Solanke scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 5-2 loss versus Atletico Madrid.

Impact Solanke was subbed onto the pitch at halftime with his side in a 4-1 hole. He managed to find the back of the net with a nice strike in the 76th minute assisted by Pedro Porro, a goal which gives his side a slim chance heading into the second leg. It was one of two shots he put on target, and he also created one chance and recorded one accurate cross. He will likely need to score again in the second leg if Spurs are to pull off the shocking comeback.
