Kenny Tete - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Bench option Saturday Tete (groin) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Arsenal.

Impact Tete has been included in the squad after returning to grass training last week following a four-match absence, with the coaching staff easing him back via the bench in line with the minimal expectations surrounding his chances of starting this weekend. The right-back had last featured on March 15 when he went the full 90 minutes in a draw against Nottingham Forest, and his 22 Premier League appearances this season underline his importance to the Cottagers when fit. Timothy Castagne is set to retain the starting role at right-back for now, with Tete's return to the first eleven expected to follow in the coming fixtures as he builds back his match sharpness.

Impact Tete returned to training on grass last week, so while he could see minutes this weekend, his chances of starting are minimal. Tete has missed Fulham's last four games and hasn't played since March 15, when he went the full 90 in a draw vs. Nottingham Forest. With Tete unlikely to start, Timothy Castagne should continue to start at right-back for the Cottagers.

Impact Tete looks to be in need of some testing ahead of Saturday's match to see if he is an option, as the defender has been dealt two different knocks. The good news if the injuries appear to be minor, leaving more room for the defender to play. With 21 starts in 22 appearances this season, they will hope their starter is an option, with Timothy Castagne as a possible replacement at right-back.

Creates chance in loss Tete had one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 1-0 loss versus West Ham United.

Impact Tete got forward in a few different ways throughout Wednesday's loss.

It was a frustrating match and a big missed opportunity against a hot West Ham side who were bouncing back from shipping five last time out.

Impact Tete has missed Fulham's last three matches across all competitions, and it seems the right-back will be sidelined once again for this clash.

Impact Tete left in the 51st minute of Thursday's clash and was replaced by Timothy Castagne. Tete could be ruled out of the weekend's encounter with Liverpool in case of a serious issue, which would be a significant blow to the squad, considering that he has made regular starts at right-back.

Impact Tete was an unused sub in the 1-0 loss to Arsenal, and the right-back should be an option once again. He was a regular starter in the first five games of the season and will look to recover that role against Newcastle, a game where Fulham should have their hands full from a defensive standpoint. In five EPL starts this season, Tete has 12 crosses (one accurate), 16 tackles, 16 clearances and three interceptions.

Impact Tete is battling to return from his knee injury but appears more than likely to miss another match, as the defender is doubtful to face the Gunners.
