Eddie Nketiah - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Will miss rest of season Nketiah will miss the rest of the season due to a new hamstring injury, according to manager Oliver Glasner. "For Eddie, unfortunately, it is the end of the season, so he won't ret...

Impact Nketiah picked up the injury in Wednesday's training session, and not only will he miss the weekend match against Newcastle, but he won't be able to return before the end of the 2025/26 campaign. It's been an injury-marred season for the striker, who has been limited to just two starts and 12 Premier League appearances this season, tallying two goals.

Impact Nketiah suffered a setback with a hamstring injury late in Wednesday's training session after targeting a return for Thursday's Conference League clash against Fiorentina and has been ruled out for the match. He will undergo further tests to determine the severity of the issue, and his potential absence would leave fewer attacking options in the depth chart.

Eyeing return after break Nketiah (strain) is eyeing a return after the international break, according to manager Oliver Glasner. "I think after the international break, Eddie will be back for us."

Impact Nketiah is nearing a return to action as expected, with the forward now eyeing a return right after the international break. This comes after he has not played since the turn of the new year, missing the past two months of action. His return will give some more depth in the attack, notching two starts in 12 appearances this season.

Out until April Nketiah (strain) won't be available before April, according to coach Igoar Glasner. "Eddie won't be available before April. So we're pushing hard to have him back in the team."

Impact Nketiah won't be available before April after already missing the last 10 matches due to a strain injury. The forward had been operating in a reserve role prior to the setback and is likely to return to that spot once he is fit again, especially with Jean-Philippe Mateta nearing a return and Jorgen Strand Larsen arriving during the winter transfer window.

Eyeing April return Nketiah (strain) is eyeing a return to play in April, according to manager Oliver Glasner. "I mentioned it [last week]: Eddie had a setback and it will take him now a few more week...

Impact Nketiah suffered a setback last week and will now be looking out at least another month out, set to return to training during March and not play again until April. This does mean the club is without two of their forwards for a bit more time, as Jean-Philippe Mateta (knee) is also out. Jordan Strand Larsen should remain in the starting XI at forward until the other two recover, hoping they can see a boost soon.

FEBRUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers setback Nketiah (strain) remains out as he "had a setback and we will miss him for a few more weeks.", manager Oliver Glasner confirmed Wednesday.

Impact Nketiah hasn't played since Dec. 28 while continuing to struggle with muscular problems. He previously scored twice over 12 appearances across all competitions, but he had been used mostly as a bench option, so his absence impacts the squad's attacking depth. Jorgen Strand Larsen should continue to lead the front line until either Nketiah or Jean-Philippe Mateta (knee) returns.

FEBRUARY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Still sidelined Nketiah (strain) is still not an option for the club, according to manager Oliver Glasner.

Impact Nketiah is still going to miss out as he extends his absence past a month, still not fit due to his strain. That said, the club has yet to give much on an update surrounding the player, leaving his availability in the next few weeks in question. With two starts in 12 appearances, this continues to be more of a loss of depth, with two goals in 400 minutes of play this season.

Remains out Nketiah will miss Sunday's trip to Newcastle, with manager Oliver Glasner saying "It looks like [Eddie Nketiah] is also not available. It looks like nobody will come back for this...

Impact Nketiah is expected to spend his second straight game on the sidelines while he continues to battle a muscular issue. He had alternated starts and substitute outings prior to the injury, but his exclusion will leave Yeremy Pino and Justin Devenney as the obvious choices in attacking midfield, with Christantus Uche offering an unlikely alternative.

Taking injury game-by-game Nketiah is out for Thursday's match against Fulham and is taking his injury game-by-game, according to manager Olive Glasner. "Eddie is out for this game, so let's see for the next...

Impact Nketiah is heading to the sidelines for at least a match, as the forward is dealing with some setbacks of a muscle injury. He will move forward going game-by-game, making him questionable for Sunday's match against Newcastle. This will likely leave Yeremy Pino and either Christantus Uche or Justin Devenny to start in the attacking portion of the midfield, with Nketiah only starting twice all season.

Manages knock Nketiah was forced off at halftime due to a knock during Tuesday's defeat against Arsenal in the Carabao Cup, but will be available for Sunday's clash against Tottenham, coach Oliv...

Impact Nketiah is seeing a greater role for Palace with the departure of Ismaila Sarr for the AFCON but the forward received a knock in the first half of Tuesday's Carabao Cup defeat against the Gunners that he will need to manage in the coming days. The issue seems to be minor since coach Oliver Glasner already announced that he will be available against the Spurs on Sunday. That said, if he had to ultimately miss the game or start on the bench, the young Justin Devenny will likely get a starting chance for that clash.

Scores in win Nketiah scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Sunday's 2-1 victory against Fulham.

Impact Nketiah found the back of the net with a pair of shots during Sunday's win and came away with a goal. The striker has largely been a backup this season, but was excellent during Sunday's win in a jammy clash with Fulham. Nketiah could take more minutes due to injuries or rotation, but he's unlikely to earn the top striking job.

Four shots Sunday Nketiah had four shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Manchester United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 53rd minute.

Impact Nketiah would come off the bench Sunday in place of an injured Ismaila Sarr (undisclosed), receiving 52 minutes of play. He would see some decent work with his four shots, although he would not earn a goal as not a single shot hit the target. He remains at one goal this season and is yet to see a start, something that could change if Sarr misses more time.

Available off bench Nketiah (hamstring) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Wolves.

Impact Nketiah was expected to be an option after the break, and that has materialized with the forward returning to the bench on Saturday against Wolves. His availability still offers reinforcements for the attack as he has been cleared for action again. That said, he is unlikely to push into the starting XI given that all five of his appearances have come from the bench.

Impact Nketiah was expected to be an option after the break, and that appears to be coming to fruition, with the forward cleared for action again. This will add some reinforcements to the attack for the club, although he is unlikely to earn a starting role, with all five appearances coming from the bench.

Impact Nketiah suffered the injury in the Carabao Cup win over Liverpool on Wednesday. The striker is a depth option in the attack, so his absence won't be much of an issue in most fantasy formats.

Impact Nketiah suffered a new hamstring injury in the first half of Wednesday's Carabao Cup clash against the Reds and will likely spend some time on the sidelines again to recover. The striker has been struggling to keep himself fit and will have to wait to feature more minutes for Palace. He came off the bench in his last five appearances in the Premier League, so his absence will not impact the starting XI.

Scores heroic winner Nketiah scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 win over Liverpool. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 78th minute.

Impact Nketiah scored a heroic winner Saturday, finding the back of the net deep in second half stoppage time. The forward has struggled to earn consistent starts, but he's still a good finished with upside when he's on the pitch. Nketiah has appeared in each of the last two matches since returning from a hamstring injury that held him out to start the season.
