Not far from return Krejci (knee) is back on grass and not far from a return, according to his club.

Impact Krejci will not make the call for Wednesday's match, but is at least making some decent progress in his return, already back on grass training. However, the defender has yet to train with the group, unlikely to see the field this week.

Suffers minor knee injury Krejci missed Sunday's 1-0 loss against Aston Villa due to a minor knee injury, coach Rob Edwards said to the media, according to Liam Keen from Express and Star.

Impact Krejci missed Sunday's clash against the Villains after suffering from a minor knee injury this week. The defender was feeling pain behind his knee but the staff are hoping he could be back available for Wednesday's clash against Nottingham Forest.

Joins Wolves on loan Krejci has joined Wolves on loan from Girona for the 2025/26 season and will become a permanent Wolves player until 2030 if certain options are activated, his new club announced.

He debuted for the national team in 2022 and was later named Sparta captain, guiding them to a league title while earning Player of the Season. After moving to Girona, he made 36 appearances including seven in the Champions League, scored a La Liga Goal of the Month against Villarreal, and now joins Wolves after starting both of Girona's first two league matches this season. Krejci will bring a qualitative option to the backline under coach Vitor Pereira and will likely compete for a starting role moving forward.

Impact Krejci had a brilliant first season in Catalonia, contributing decently in defense with 23 tackles, 34 interceptions, and 90 clearances in 28 La Liga games while scoring two goals in 18 shots and creating eight chances in offensive phases, highlighting how the Czech can influence both sides of the pitch. Krejci's promising first season will likely earn him an undisputed starting role in central defense next season in Girona.

JUNE 13 • ROTOWIRE

Clears suspension Krejci is no longer suspended and is an option moving forward for the club.

Impact Krejci has cleared his ban due to yellow card accumulation, with the defender set to return in their next contest. He should return directly in the starting XI in the central defense for Sunday's game against Real Sociedad since he has been an undisputed starter for Girona.

Impact Krejci did his best to prevent the 3-0 manhandling that Girona had to endure at the hands of Athletic on Saturday. In 90 minutes played, the center back completed the most passes in the match with 89, made three passes into the final third, won three of his four tackles, and won six of his eight duels. Krejci has been one of Girona's best defenders all season, and Saturday proved why he has played the full 90 minutes for Girona in every match since November 5. They will need his defensive stewardship this Friday against Getafe to avoid four defeats in five matches.

FEBRUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Fit Monday Krejci (groin) is in the starting XI for Monday's match against Las Palmas.

Returning from ban Krejci completed his one-game suspension and will be available to face Valladolid on Friday.

Impact Krejci has established himself as a regular for Girona and has been part of the XI in all but one of his 15 appearances for the club between LaLiga and the UEFA Champions League. As such, he should return to the XI right away ahead of Friday's tilt against Valladolid.

DECEMBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Suspended to face Mallorca Krejci picked up his fifth yellow card of the 2024/25 Liga season and will be suspended to face Mallorca on Sunday.

This means David Lopez will likely play alongside Daley Blind at CB in a 4-3-3 setting. Krejci will be eligible tor return against Valladolid on Friday, Dec. 20, in the team's final game of the calendar year.

DECEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores against Espanyol Krejci scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 4-1 victory against Espanyol.

Impact Krejci scored in the 27th minute to give Girona an impressive 4-0 lead still in the first half with his first goal in the season. The centerback wasn't really tested on defense during the match.

NOVEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Own goal again Krejci recorded an own goal and one shot (one on goal) in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to PSV Eindhoven.

Impact It is pretty rare for one to score an own goal, let alone twice as Krejci has done across two of his last three appearances. This is part of the center-back's inconsistent production in Champions League action, not full-out terrible considering that Girona's team logged a clean sheet between the games in which he scored an own goal. The three-game span saw Krejci log five clearances, three interceptions and two blocks.

NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores own goal in loss Krejci generated an own goal, one tackle (one won) and one clearance in Wednesday's 3-2 defeat versus Feyenoord.

Impact Krejci made a negative impact by deflecting the ball into his own net for the decisive goal in the 79th minute of the continental clash. It was his fourth start of the season and second in a row considering both LaLiga and Champions League action. While the own goal and an overall poor performance could put pressure on him, he remains a solid source of passes and clearances from his center-back spot.

OCTOBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Four shots but fails to score Krejci recorded four shots (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Georgia.

JUNE 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Krejci will represent the Czech Republic in the 2024 Euros, and after a short break following the tournament, he'll join his new club as he prepares for a 2024/25 campaign in which Girona will compete in both LaLiga and the UEFA Champions League. Krejci will add depth to the defensive line, but it's not hard to imagine a scenario in which he gets regular playing time and a decent number of starts.
