Impact Rodon is back in selection for the club after an injury scare over the weekend, avoiding a serious hamstring injury. He will likely still need to face some testing with the quick turnaround, although it does look to be positive for the defender.

Impact Rodon is now a doubt for upcoming matchups, causing considerable concern ahead of a week with two games against Sunderland and Norwich in league and FA Cup, respectively.

Leaves with discomfort Wednesday Rodon was forced to leave Wednesday's 3-3 draw with Newcastle due to an undisclosed injury.

Impact Rodon limped off after suffering some pain in the final minutes of the midweek duel, which was his first start since recovering from an ankle issue. It's unclear if he's dealing with a new injury or a setback, and his status is currently in doubt for the short term. Jaka Bijol and Pascal Struijk played alongside him in the back line Wednesday and should be the top options to feature, with Sebastian Bornauw available to fill in if Rodon is sidelined again.

Starting Wednesday Rodon (ankle) is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game versus Newcastle.

Impact Rodon was likely to miss three weeks and that appears to be coming to fruition, as the defender is eyeing a return after the FA Cup match and another week of rest.

He is a typical starter in the defense, so this is major loss for the time being, with the club likely to move to a four-back while Jaka Bijol and Pascal Struijk earn the start in the middle of the defense.

This comes with the club having a busy schedule, set to play three matches between now and the January 11 contest.
