Arek Milik - Will miss Euro Milik has left the national team and headed back to Marseille to rehab and will not be replaced in the Euro roster, Poland announced.

Impact Milik tried to play through a meniscus injury, but he did not pass the final fitness test and was ruled out for the tournament. Poland will lean primarily on Robert Lewandowski offensively, while Dawid Kownacki and Karol Swiderski should get a bump in playing time with Milik no longer on the squad.

Arek Milik - Appears ready for Euros opener Milik (knee) took part in part of training Friday, according to manager Kuba Kwiatkowski.

Impact Milik apparently suffered a knock to his knee in a friendly earlier in the week which forced him off in the 67th minute. It doesn't seem like a major issue, but it's something that held the forward out a few training sessions. For now, he's expected to be ready for the June 14 tournament opener.

Alvaro Gonzalez - Suspended for new season opener Alvaro will be suspended for the new season opener for yellow card accumulation

Impact Alvaro finishes a solid campaign with two goals, three assists and six clean sheets in 32 league starts while failing to register any major contributions in six UCL starts.

Dario Benedetto - Takes one shot in finale Benedetto had one shot (off target) and two dribbles in Sunday's 1-1 draw to Metz.

Impact Benedetto surprisingly picked up his first start since February in the finale but was yet again fairly quiet and didn't impress much in a poor campaign for him. He started the season a bit better though and managed to rack up five goals and three assists in 32 league appearances (19 starts) while failing to score or assist in six UCL appearances (three starts).

MAY 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Valentin Rongier - Goes unused in finale Rongier was an unused sub in Sunday's 1-1 draw to Metz.

Impact Rongier was very limited at the end of an otherwise solid campaign for him. He was a regular early in the campaign until picking up a bad injury and mounted one goal, two assists, 17 shots and 93 tackles in 26 appearances (21 starts).

MAY 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Steve Mandanda - Makes two saves in draw with Metz Mandanda made two saves and conceded once in the 1-1 draw with Metz on Sunday.

Impact Mandanda almost escaped with a clean sheet if not for the injury time penalty. The keeper has been in great form over the past handful of appearances. In that span he has made 13 saves and conceded six goals. Mandanda's value has been up and down all season mainly because of the lack of saves. There have been plenty of matches where he doesn't make a single save drastically hurting his value. Otherwise, he is always a great option worth considering.

Dimitri Payet - Takes 10 corners in 1-1 draw Sunday Payet created three chances, sent 12 crosses (two accurate), took 10 corners, made two tackles (two won) and received one yellow card in the 1-1 draw with Metz on Sunday.

Impact Payet was the maestro for Marseille once again. The midfielder continues to thrive when by himself in the lineup. Typically teammate Florian Thauvin vultures some of Payet's value. However, when one is out, the other succeeds. Payet has been an incredible playmaker all season for Marseille. During the season he averaged, 1.38 shots, 2.0 created chances, 5.58 crosses, 2.79 corners and 0.76 tackles per 90 minutes in all competitions.

Arek Milik - Continues goal-scoring form Milik scored once, took three shots (two on target) and sent three crosses (one accurate) in the 1-1 draw with Metz on Sunday.

Impact Milik scored yet another goal for Marseille in their draw Sunday. The forward has been in crazy form lately, accumulating 15 shots in his past four appearances. He also has four goals in that span too. Milik was lucky enough to be called up to the spot in what was a crazy bout of injury time. Marseille went down by one in the sixth minute and by the 13th and final minute, Milik was chosen to tie the game and put it to bed. He did just that to cap off a successful first season with his new club.

Pol Lirola - Wins match MVP in draw Lirola took two shots (none on target), created one chance, sent six crosses (two accurate), made one tackle (one won) and received one yellow card in the 1-1 draw against Metz on...

Impact Lirola had another good match in the draw. The defender had dropped form for a few matches, but he seems to have picked it back up. In his most recent two appearances he has, one assist, three shots, four created chances, nine crosses and five tackles. Lirola definitely does it all and he is a dynamic threat on the right-flank for Marseille.

MAY 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jordan Amavi - Returns to starting XI in draw Amavi sent one cross (none accurate) and made one interception during the 1-1 draw with Metz on Sunday.

Impact Amavi made his first start in just his second appearance after being out for a few months. Unfortunately for the defender though, it was not a great performance to end the season. Prior to all of his injuries and time away from the pitch, Amavi was a force for Marseille and they surely missed his skills. He is a great option to consider heading into next season.

Impact The full extent of Sakai's ailment remains unclear. Leonardo Balerdi will slot in his place at center-back.

MAY 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Florian Thauvin - Suspended for final Marseille match Thauvin is suspended for Sunday's season finale versus Metz.

Impact Thauvin will be a massive blow for Marseille but they have to start adjusting to life without him anyway. The playmaker will end this campaign with eight goals and eight assists in 36 appearances and will leave Marseille after five and a half seasons mounting a total of 63 goals and 25 assists in 166 appearances during that period.

MAY 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Pape Alassane Gueye - Available for season finale Gueye (suspension) is available for Sunday's season finale versus Metz.

Impact Gueye has shown some offensive upside of late with one goal on three shots over his past five appearances (four starts). He's now had two goals this campaign but remains primarily productive in defensive peripheral stats.

MAY 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Pol Lirola - Registers one assist versus Angers Lirola provided one assist, took one shot on target, created three chances and delivered three crosses in Sunday's 3-2 win versus Angers.

Impact Lirola had a good offensive outing Sunday as he provided one assist to help his side take home all three points. The fullback has been going through a great offensive form as of late as he has managed to score twice and provide two assists in his last five appearances. He will look to continue this strong form Sunday versus Metz.

MAY 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dimitri Payet - Provides assist in win Payet provided one assist, took three shots (one on target), created five chances, delivered four crosses and won one tackle in Sunday's 3-2 win versus Angers.
