Sven Botman - 45 against Atletico Botman (groin) appeared for 45 minutes in a friendly against Atletico Madrid on Saturday.
Impact Botman was dealt an injury a week back in a friendly but has returned Saturday, starting and facing Atletico for 45 minutes. This should clear the defender for the start of the season, where he will likely serve as the club's first depth option off the bench, still earning starts here and there when starters are injured or need a rest.

Impact Gordon suffered an injury Saturday but appears to have avoided a major issue, with the attacker now claimed to have suffered only a twisted ankle. This is good news, but it still puts him in a bit of a bind for their season opener on Aug. 16, as the club likely won't want to risk him unless fully fit. That said, he will probably be a late call and required to pass some testing, with Harvey Barnes, Jacob Murphy and Anthony Elanga as a possible front three if Gordon is left out.

Anthony Gordon - Exits late in friendly Gordon was forced off late in Saturday's friendly against Atletico Madrid, leaving in the 84th minute.
Impact Gordon went 84 minutes Saturday before pulling up with an injury and walking down the tunnel immediately after, per reporter Lee Ryder. With a week before the season, there's a big question on availability for Gordon, especially with Alexander Isak already ruled out. If this turns into a real injury for Gordon, it'll likely mean a front three of Harvey Barnes, Jacob Murphy and Anthony Elanga for the Aug. 16 opener unless Will Osula gets a surprise nod in the XI.
