He featured 25 times last season, scoring thrice and recording 33 tackles, 25 interceptions, 112 clearances and seven blocks, with seven clean sheets.

MARCH 4 • ROTOWIRE

DECEMBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Finds bench spot De Winter (thigh) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Empoli.

Impact De Winter has made his way back to the team sheet Saturday as expected, earning a spot on the bench in his return. This is great news for the defender, as he has missed their past ten matches after starting in their first seven matches of the season. That said, he will likely hope to test his legs Saturday before returning to the starting XI next contest.

DECEMBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will return against Empoli De Winter (thigh) "has had a good week and training and will be with us Saturday," coach Patrick Vieira announced.

He has notched 12 tackles, eight interceptions and 32 clearances in seven season appearances, scoring once and contributing to one clean sheet.

DECEMBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to miss two more games De Winter (thigh) "is a couple of weeks from being ready to play in a game," coach Patrick Vieira announced.

NOVEMBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still on the mend De Winter (thigh) didn't return to full training during the break, Il Secolo XIX reported.

NOVEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will miss time De Winter (thigh) "will be unavailable against Bologna and will need some time to return," coach Alberto Gilardino informed.

Picks up injury with Belgium De Winter was unavailable for the clash with France due to a thigh issue he suffered in training, Il Secolo XIX reported.

Levels Roma game late De Winter scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), four clearances and two interceptions in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Roma.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Logs six clearance in Inter tilt De Winter had two tackles and six clearances and drew one foul in Saturday's 2-2 draw with Inter.

AUGUST 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will miss season finale De Winter will be unavailable against Bologna on Friday due to muscle fatigue, coach Alberto Gilardino announced.

Impact De Winter became a regular after Radu Dragusin departed in January and had a respectable season, posting 44 tackles, 21 interceptions and 77 clearances in 29 appearances, contributing to four clean sheets. His number of caps and Genoa staying in Serie A triggered the conditioned obligation to acquire him from Juventus. The injury is minor, and he shouldn't be at risk for the Euro, but he'll be evaluated by the Belgium doctors. Matteo Bani or Giorgio Cittadini will replace him versus Bologna.

MAY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Shows well against Juventus De Winter had two tackles (two won), four clearances, three blocks and one interception in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Juventus.

FEBRUARY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Eligible for Lecce game De Winter completed a one-game disqualification in Sudnay's 2-1 win over Salernitana.

Impact De Winter will most likely be back in the XI against Lecce on Sunday, either replacing Alessandro Vogliacco or playing along with him since Genoa are dealing with a few injury concerns. He has registered nine tackles (five won), four interceptions, and 13 clearances in his last five showings, with one clean sheet.

JANUARY 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will miss Salernitana game De Winter won one of two tackles, had two interceptions and two clerances, and was cautioned for the fifth time in Saturday's 0-0 draw with Torino.

Impact De Winter had a quality showing but will skip the next contest due to yellow-card accumulation. Genoa have yet to sign a new defender after selling Radu Dragusin, so Alessandro Voglacco is the frontrunner to replace him.
