MAHMOUD DAHOUD NEWS

Nets rare goal Dahoud scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-3 win over 1. FC Koln.

Impact Dahoud found the back of the net with a rare goal during Saturday's narrow win over Koln. The midfielder is a defensive midfield option and isn't normally pushed too far up the pitch, but he got involved in the attack during Saturday's win. Dahoud isn't likely to become a major offensive contributor moving forward despite some good performances in recent weeks.

Holds depth role Dahoud made just nine appearances (three starts) during his first season with Frankfurt.

Impact Dahoud was a solid depth option, scoring and assisting once each during his first campaign with Frankfurt. That said he never really established an every-day role and by the end of the season Oscar Hojlund had displaced him as a more consistent depth option. Dahoud likely faces an uphill battle for major minutes next season.

Creative in win Dahoud generated two shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-1 win versus Holstein Kiel. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 62nd minute.

Impact Dahoud created a chance and got forward a bit more than normal during Sunday's win. That was likely due to the limited opposite Kiel offered. Still Dahoud has the talent to be more than just a midfield recycler. It's not a great sign for Dahoud that young Oscar Hojlund seems to be on equal footing with him for a holding midfield spot.

Returns Thursday Dahoud (illness) came off the bench during Thursday's 2-0 loss to Roma.

Impact Dahoud was back in the squad Thursday, and played during the second half of Thursday's match. The holding midfielder is unlikely to play a large role even when fully fit, and will mostly be a rotational option.

Remains out Sunday Dahoud (illness) is not in the squad for Sunday's trip to Hoffenheim.

Impact Dahoud remains out after also missing Thursday's Europa League fixture through illness. The midfielder will hope to recover in time for Thursday's clash with Roma.

Misses team training with illness Dahoud (illness) missed the last training session due to a cold, the club announced.

Impact Dahoud is doubtful for Thursday's match against Ferencvaros and Sunday's game against Hoffenheim due to a cold that caused him to miss the last training session. However, he has started only one of the last four Bundesliga matches, so his absence is unlikely to have a significant impact on the starting XI.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Scores and assists Dahoud scored one goal and assisted once from four shots and two chances created in Saturday's 7-2 win versus Bochum.

Impact Dahoud was in the starting XI in a rotated team, and he made his case for more minutes with aplomb. He was good for a goal and assist as Frankfurt dismantled Bochum's defense. Dahoud will likely remain a rotation option, but with Frankfurt working in so many competitions there should still be plenty of chances for Dahoud.

Transfers to Frankfurt Dahoud completed a permanent transfer to Frankfurt from Brighton, the club announced.

Impact Dahoud made a permanent move away from Brighton after a disappointing loan spell with Stuttgart. He goes to Frankfurt, where he will likely be a valuable depth option, but probably won't push too hard for major minutes.

AUGUST 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Set to return to England Dahoud will not extend his loan with Stuttgart, returning to Brighton ahead of the 2024/25 season.

Impact Dahoud was not able to make much of an influence with Stuttgart since joining on loan in the winter, being used as just a bench option in the midfield. He started once on 13 appearances, recording a goal with six crosses (two won) and five tackles (one won).

JUNE 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Struggles for minutes Dahoud made just 13 appearances (one start) on loan with Stuttgart.

Impact Dahoud was loaned to Stuttgart with eyes on taking a larger role in the first team. He actually managed to play less minutes than he played with Brighton before going out on loan. In the end it was a very disappointing loan spell for the midfielder.

MAY 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Eligible to return Dahoud is eligible to return from a three-match ban for Saturday's clash with Burnley.

Impact Dahoud served a three-match ban and is now eligible to return after spending more than a month on the sideline. The midfielder has played a good bit in the starting XI of late though Carlos Baleba has done well in the starting XI so it's unclear if Dahoud will return immediately to the pitch.

Impact Dahoud was shown a straight red card following a challenge in the 69th minute. The midfielder is set to face a three match ban in the league.

Starts in Europa League Dahoud got the start during Thursday's 2-0 win over Ajax.

Impact Dahoud had a poor game, playing just 65 minutes before coming off. The midfielder has had a tough start to life in Brighton, finding himself on the bench and even unused quite frequently. Still injuries elsewhere in the midfield could force Dahoud into more chances during a very hectic December schedule.

First assist in win Dahoud provided an assist and placed one shot (off-target) in Sunday's 3-1 win over AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Dahoud did not have a strong game overall, but did manage to create the assist for Kaoru Mitoma's first goal. He was subbed after 74. The German midfielder is still trying to find his feet at Brighton since joining them over the summer from Borussia Dortmund. From five appearances (three starts) this was his first assist.

Signs with Brighton Dahoud has signed a four-year contract with Brighton away from Borussia Dortmund.

Impact It's a smart signing for Brighton, as they'll need bodies in the midfield due to departing players, as well as European play. Dahoud struggled with injuries this past season, but he'd started 35 Bundesliga matches the prior two campaigns and figures to immediately fight for time in Brighton's midfield with both Moises Caicedo and Alexis Mac Allister gone.

Pair of interceptions Dahoud registered one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 6-1 win versus 1. FC Koln. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 66th minute.

Impact Dahoud was tasked with a more defensive role in midfield and he fulfilled it well, making a pair of interceptions and breaking up the Koln attacks. When Emre Can and Salih Ozcan are both fully fit it's more likely than not that Dahoud returns to the bench. Still with a busy end to the season on the cards there should be plenty of space for rotation.

MARCH 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Active in friendly Dahoud played 45 minutes during Tuesday's friendly against Fortuna Dusseldorf.

Impact Dahoud played the opening 45 minutes Tuesday in the friendly match, his first action since undergoing surgery on his shoulder. The midfielder is targeting a return for a Jan. 22 clash with Augsburg, and will be hoping to avoid any more setbacks in the second half of the Bundesliga.

JANUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Off with shoulder injury Dahoud was forced off in the first half of Saturday's match with Werder Bremen due to a shoulder injury.

Impact Dahoud departed in the 18th minute after succumbing to a potentially dislocated shoulder. Emre Can replaced Dahoud in the Dortmund midfield as more information about the extent of injury should be available following the match.

Busy for win Dahoud created a chance and made two tackles and interceptions during Friday's 3-1 win over Freiburg.

Impact Dahoud has been a nailed-on starter so far in the 2022/23 campaign and has done well to fill the stat sheet in each of the first two matches. The midfielder was in and out of the starting XI last time out but seems to have a slightly more solidified role for the new season.

AUGUST 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Twenty starts Dahoud made 22 appearances and 20 starts during the 2021/22 Bundesliga campaign.

Impact Dahoud was once again a rotational option for Dortmund. The midfielder was brought in from Gladbach in 2017 with the hope that he could repeat his goal contributing brilliance. It's never quite clicked for Dahoud, who once again found himself struggling for playing time, and stuck in a more box-to-box role. That said he may finally have found his footing somewhat with the club, as Dahoud produced two goals and three assists, his best return so far for The Black and Yellow.
