Eljif Elmas - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Scores against Torino Elmas scored one goal to go with two shots (one on target), one cross (one accurate) and two corners in Friday's 2-1 win over Torino.

Impact Elmas put his team up by two goals in the second half with a technical volley from the middle of the box. It's his maiden goal this season, while he has dished out three helpers. He has been filling in for Scott McTominay (thigh), who might not be out for much longer, lately, while Frank Anguissa and Kevin De Bruyne returned from injury in this one, so his minutes might dip in the next few tilts. He has registered at least one corner in seven matches in a row, totaling 13, assisting once and posting six shots (three on target), eight chances created and 11 crosses (four accurate) over that span.

Sends in four crosses against Genoa Elmas recorded four crosses (one accurate), one tackle (one won) and three corners and created two scoring chances in Saturday's 3-2 victory against Genoa.

Impact Elmas put together another quality display in the final third, even though he played as a box-to-box in the second half following Scott McTominay's (thigh) injury. He'll likely handle such a role if the teammate misses time, with Giovane or Alisson Santos entering the XI. Elmas has notched at least one cross in five matches on the trot, piling up 15 deliveries (four accurate) and logging 12 corners and four shots (zero on target) over that span, with one assist. Additionally, he has created one or more chances in the last three fixtures, accumulating six key passes.

Creates three chances versus Fiorentina Elmas had two shots (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and three corners and created three scoring chances in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Fiorentina.

Impact Elmas was a big presence in the final third and put up good numbers across the board offensively. He continues to have a major role with David Neres (ankle) and Matteo Politano (thigh) both on the mend and Romelu Lukaku not ready for big minutes. He has notched one or more crosses in the last four games, amassing 11 deliveries (three accurate) and adding one assist, four shots (zero on target) and five key passes over that span.

He has featured in six games, starting thrice (indicating his rotational role) and this was his first goal contribution in European competitions this campaign.

Starting Tuesday Elmas (head) is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's match against Copenhagen.

Impact Elmas will feature in attacking midfield after recovering from a minor issue, and he could be set for meaningful playing time in the absence of Matteo Politano (thigh) and David Neres (ankle). Elmas will aim to increase his UCL season totals of three shots (two on goal), five chances created and six crosses (three accurate) in five appearances.

Available against Copenhagen Elmas "wasn't feeling well because of the flu and a stomach bug Saturday, but he has trained fully Monday, so he's fine," Napoli doctor Raffaele Canonico announced.

Impact Elmas left early in the previous match but won't need to miss time, as he was dealing with an illness. He's set for regular minutes since Matteo Politano (thigh) and David Neres (ankle) will skip a few fixtures. He has assisted once and added five shots (two on target), seven key passes and seven crosses (one accurate) in the last five tilts.

Solid off the bench versus Atalanta Elmas generated one cross (one accurate), two tackles (two won), one cross (one accurate) and two corners in 21 minutes in Saturday's 3-1 win over Atalanta.

Impact Elmas didn't get the start even though Napoli were short-handed in the midfield without Frank Anguissa and Kevin De Bruyne, who are out long-term because of thigh injuries, but he made the most of his minutes, putting up small numbers across the board. He'll likely rotate with Noa Lang, David Neres and Matteo Politano in the next few matches. He has recorded at least one chance in five straight matches, totaling 10 and logging 14 crosses (seven accurate) and 10 corners in that span. Instead, he didn't have a shot for the first time in five fixtures.

Moderately active in Bologna match Elmas had one shot (one on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Sunday's 2-0 loss versus Bologna.

Impact Elmas wasn't overly productive but was one of the most convincing Napoli performers in an ugly collective performance. He has enjoyed an uptick in minutes in minute since Kevin De Bruyne (thigh) got hurt, starting in three of the last four matches and posting at least one shot, one key pass and one cross in each of them. He competes with David Neres and Noa Lang in the current scheme.

Season-best attacking display Elmas registered three shots (two on goal), six crosses (three accurate) and two corners in Tuesday's 0-0 draw versus Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Elmas made his first Champions League start of the season on the left wing after totaling 25 minutes off the bench in the previous two matches. He was active in attack, recording season highs with three shots and five chances created while attempting six crosses and taking two corners, though he is still without a goal or assist this season.

NOVEMBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Loaned to Napoli Elmas has been loaned to Napoli from Leipzig, according to his parent club.

Impact Elmas is moving away from Leipzig for another season after he was loaned to Torino for half of the last campaign, once again heading to Italy but with Napoli now. He started in 12 of his 13 appearances while on loan last campaign, notching four goals in the process. We will hope to see a similar role this campaign, although it may be a bit more difficult breaking into this side with a bit more talent around him.

SEPTEMBER 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Not staying at Torino for now Elmas wasn't retained by Torino in June, although he could be back later in the summer, Mediaset informed.

Impact Elmas bounced back in his Serie A return after a rough time in the Bundesliga, scoring four times in 13 matches, but Torino deemed the clause to sign him permanently too high and will try to renegotiate the terms to reunite with him eventually.

JUNE 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Decent against Roma Elmas (thigh) had one shot on target, three crosses (one accurate) and two tackles (two won) in Sunday's 2-0 defeat versus Roma.

Impact Elmas was passable on offense and played most of the game after sitting out the previous tilt due to a muscular injury. He has scored four times and posted 19 shots (10 on target), nine key passes, 23 crosses (eight accurate) and 10 tackles in 13 games while on loan from RB Leipzig. He's not sure to stay despite his sound performances since the clause to acquire him permanently is pretty expensive.

MAY 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Gets the nod versus Roma Elmas (thigh) has been selected in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Roma.

Impact Elmas will make a quick return to the initial formation after sitting out one game due to an ailment. He has scored four goals in 13 appearances with Torino, but his last one dates back to early April.

MAY 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go for Roma clash Elmas (thigh) "will be available Sunday after ramping up in training," coach Paolo Vanoli stated.

Impact Elmas will limit his absence to one game and will compete especially with Gvidas Gineitis to make the XI depending on his level of fitness, as he's a staple when healthy. He has totaled nine shots (four on target), two key passes, 15 crosses (five accurate) and five tackles (three won) in his last five appearances, with no goal contributions.

MAY 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Late scratch for Lecce bout Elmas (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Sunday's tilt against Lecce.

Impact Elmas got hurt very late in the week, as the coach hadn't mentioned him in the pre-game presser. He'll take the tests after the game. Sergiu Perciun or Gvidas Gineitis will replace him on the left flank, unless the boss opts to change the scheme altogether and go with a three-man line.

MAY 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Seven crosses, three accurate Elmas had two shots (zero on goal), seven crosses (three accurate) and one corner in Friday's 1-1 draw against Venezia.

Impact Elmas easily updated his season highs in crosses, both total and accurate. Going into Friday, his highs in both categories were two and one respectively. At the very least, Elmas tripled both against Venezia.

MAY 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Three shots on target in defeat Elmas registered four shots (three on goal) and two crosses (one accurate) in Sunday's 1-0 loss against Como.

Impact Elmas fired at least three shots for a second consecutive game and set a season high with three shots on target. This also marked his second straight outing accounting for an accurate cross. Additionally, he set a high with two tackles won in the match.

Impact Elmas curled in the equalizer into bottom corner in the 67th minute, assisted by Nikola Vlasic. Elmas made 21 passes and also recorded a clearance. He has netted four times in seven appearances since his loan move from Leipzig
