Starts, earns assist Doku assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 victory versus Ipswich Town.

Impact Doku would find the starting XI for the first time in league play this season Saturday, with the winger playing 77 minutes in the win. He would bag a goal contribution for a second straight league contest, finding Phil Foden in the 19th minute for an assist. The winger seems to have not missed a beat since returning from injury this season, already with a goal and an assist in his three league appearances (two starts).

Scores in rout Doku scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 3-0 victory versus Liverpool.

Impact Doku got in on the goalscoring fun off the bench during Sunday's rout. He was excellent off the bench, making a huge change to the tempo of the match. The winger has been less than perfect this season, but he's excellent on matches when he gets the chance to come off the bench and run against tired legs.

Ramping up fitness Doku has been working to regain physical form while continuing to train with the team following his recovery from a calf problem in September.

Impact Doku has recorded only 15 minutes of Premier League play since he got hurt in August, so he may come off the bench in upcoming fixtures, having also missed international duty in recent weeks. At his best, the winger would be one of the most talented dribblers in the competition and a solid playmaking threat. However, his return to meaningful action will likely be a gradual one. Meanwhile, Iliman Ndiaye and Antoine Semenyo (ankle) are expected to be the most active wide elements for City.

OCTOBER 8 • ROTOWIRE

Appears for 15 minutes Doku recorded one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 5-3 win against Sunderland.

Impact Doku would finally return to the City team sheet Sunday after an injury absence to open the season, playing from the bench for 15 minutes. He would record a shot on target and a chance created in the win, although he will have to wait for a goal contribution. He will look to find a starting role once City returns from the break, although he will have plenty of competition in the loaded City attack.

Returns to bench Doku is available off the bench for Sunday's match against Sunderland after recovering from a calf injury.

Impact Doku returns to the matchday squad after missing the start of the season with a recurrent calf injury, marking his first opportunity to feature this campaign. The winger is only on the bench Sunday, which suggests his workload could initially be managed following his spell on the sidelines. Once fully fit, Doku will compete with Iliman Ndiaye and Antoine Semenyo for a starting role on the wing under manager Enzo Maresca.

SEPTEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Likely available against Sunderland Doku (calf) is likely to be available for Sunday's clash against Sunderland, according to coach Enzo Maresca. "Probably he can be available for Sunderland."

Impact Doku had missed the start of the season due to a recurrent calf injury suffered ahead of the campaign but the winger is closing on a return. This new update now offers a clearer target for his comeback, positioning him to potentially feature in City's final match before the September international break. Doku will now have to compete with newcomer Iliman Ndiaye and Antoine Semenyo for a starting role under new manager Enzo Maresca.

SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Not in squad vs. Norwich Doku (calf) isn't in the squad for Thursday's EFL Cup match against Norwich City.

Impact Manager Enzo Maresca rotated the side almost completely for this cup match and named several projected starters on the bench, but Doku wasn't among them. The winger, who's reportedly inching closer to returning, as Maresca said in Wednesday's presser, will aim to be an option Sunday against Sunderland in City's final match before the September international break.

SEPTEMBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Closing in on return Doku (calf) is nearing a return ahead of Wednesday's Carabao Cup clash against Norwich, according to coach Enzo Maresca. "He is quite close"

Impact Doku hasn't played since leaving the Community Shield at halftime with a calf injury and has remained unavailable through the opening weeks of the season. Maresca's latest update suggests the winger is now approaching a return, though it remains unclear whether he'll be ready to make the squad against Norwich. Antoine Semenyo and Iliman Ndiaye should continue to handle the majority of the minutes on the wings until Doku is cleared to return.

SEPTEMBER 16 • ROTOWIRE

Needs more days to return Doku (calf) needs a few more days before making his return to the matchday squad, according to coach Enzo Maresca. "Jeremy I think will be some more days."

Impact Doku hasn't played since the Community Shield, where he exited after 45 minutes with a calf injury, and manager Maresca had previously said he was unsure whether Doku would be ready for the derby against Manchester United. This update confirms his return remains just out of reach for now, with Antoine Semenyo and Iliman Ndiaye likely to continue starting on the wings of City's attack in the meantime.

Might not be ready for Manchester derby Doku (calf) won't play Tuesday against FC Porto and might not be ready for Sunday's derby against Manchester United, according to manager Enzo Maresca. "Jeremy, we are not sure. We...

Impact Doku hasn't played since the Community Shield, where he logged 45 minutes before exiting with a calf injury. Even though the winger has been working on his comeback over the last few weeks, based on Maresca's words, there's a chance the Manchester derby might come too soon for the star winger. If that's the case, Phil Foden could remain the starter on the right wing of City's attack.

SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Remains sidelined Doku (calf) will remain unavailable for Saturday's Premier League clash against Coventry City, according to coach Enzo Maresca, per City Xtra. "Doku is still out injured tomorrow."

Impact Doku will miss another match as he continues his recovery from the calf injury suffered against Arsenal in the Community Shield. The winger has yet to return despite initially receiving a two-to-three-week recovery timeline, though there has been no indication of a significant setback. Antoine Semenyo should remain the leading option to start on the left wing against Coventry while Doku works toward his return.

Remains out against Palace Doku (calf) will remain unavailable for Friday's Premier League clash against Crystal Palace, according to coach Enzo Maresca. "Jeremy is out."

Impact Doku will miss another match as he continues his recovery from the calf injury suffered against Arsenal in the Community Shield. The winger was initially given a two-to-three-week recovery timeline, so Friday's contest comes too soon, though a return in the coming weeks remains possible. Antoine Semenyo is expected to continue as the starter on the left wing in Doku's absence.

Impact Doku sustained a calf injury in the 3-0 loss to Arsenal in the Community Shield, and the star winger will miss a couple of matches at the very least. Based on the projected timeline, Doku could be in line to return against Coventry City on Sep. 5 or maybe against Manchester United on Sep. 13. With Doku out, Phil Foden and Jack Grealish could be options to start on the right wing since Savinho (illness) is likely headed for an exit before the end of the summer transfer window.

Impact Doku came off at halftime of Sunday's Community Shield, and while it appeared to be a tactical change at first, the winger was seen with ice on his calf. This is the worst possible outcome, as Doku is set for another spell on the sidelines, and it's unclear who might take his place in the starting lineup. Phil Foden, Savinho (illness) and Jack Grealish are all options to take his place while the Belgian star goes through his recovery process.

Icing calf after exit Doku was viewed with ice on his calf after exiting Sunday's 3-0 Community Shield loss to Arsenal at halftime with an apparent injury.

Impact Doku came off at halftime of Sunday's Community Shield in what looked to be a tactical change. However, the winger would soon be seen with ice on his calf, leaving some concern for the Belgian due to his injury issues in the past. With the season just about to start, this will be something the club monitors closely, especially as they look to potentially offload some of their numerous options on the flanks. He will have around a week and a half to recover, so he should be taken in for testing soon, with a further diagnosis available. The club has Savinho (illness) and Jack Grealish off the bench to replace Doku if needed, although both have been in plenty of talks about leaving the club recently.
