Sees time against Tottenham Ake recorded one shot (zero on goal) and two crosses (two accurate) in Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Ake would be called off the bench early into Saturday's match, with the defender entering in the 22nd minute after an injury to Rayan Ait-Nouri. Ake would see a rough time after entering the field with two goals allowed, struggling to keep pace on the left flank. It appears the defender should remain more of a rotational option this season, but could be called into play more depending on the seriousness of Ait-Nouri's injury.

JUNE 9, 2025 • Associated Press

Multiple injuries shorten season Ake started in eight of his 10 appearances while registering three interceptions, nine tackles and 22 clearances in the Premier League.

Impact Ake saw his season majorly hindered by his injury woes as he was reduced to a minimal 10 league appearances this season. This is a tough period for the defender who started in 24 games last campaign, holding a regular role for the club. He will now turn ot the next season and hope he can remain fit the whole way through, as with new additions to the defense this winter and possibly a new full-back during the summer, his spot for a place in the squad is starting to dwindle as he reaches age 30.

Returns to bench Ake (foot) is on the bench for Tuesday's match against Bournemouth.

Impact Ake is fit once again Tuesday to make it just in time for the end of the season, earning a spot on the bench against the Cherries. He hasn't played in over two months, so he will hope to see some time to test his legs through the final two games of the season.

MAY 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't make Cup final Ake (foot) is out for Saturday's match against Crystal Palace.

Impact Ake will remain sidelined for Saturday's FA Cup final after not recovering from his foot injury. HE will now hope to see a boost in fitness over the next few days and try to make one of the club's two remaining games.

Impact Ake isn't an option for Saturday's clash despite returning to training Wednesday. The defender is hopeful of making a return for a May 17 trip to Crystal Palace, especially if he can ramp up his training.

MAY 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Back in training Wednesday Ake (foot) was spotted back in team training on Wednesday, the club posted.

Impact Ake has been sidelined since early March due to a foot injury but was spotted back in team training on Wednesday which is a very positive sign since it suggests he isn't far from returning to the match squad and it might happen before the end of the season to help him build some fitness ahead of the Club World Cup at the end of the campaign.

Out 10 to 11 weeks Ake (foot) is set to miss 10 to 11 weeks of action after receiving surgery, according to manager Pep Guardiola. "10/11 weeks [he will be out] they said to me... When you have surge...

Impact Ake has received his timeline for a return following the foot surgery he underwent after struggling over the past few months with the injury. This will be a long bout on the sidelines for the defender, as he will not be expected to be fit until May, leaving a return this season in question. If he were to play again, it wouldn't be until the final few games of the season, with Ruben Dias, Manuel Akanji and Abdukodir Khusanov to take most of the time in the center of the defense while he is out.

Undergoes foot surgery Ake (foot) underwent surgery to correct a foot issue, he announced via Instagram.

Impact Ake went under the knife to correct a nagging foot issue, and is now set for an extended spell on the sideline. While there's no definite answer on how long recovery will take it's possible that this could have Ake out until the end of the season depending on his recovery.

Impact Ake does not appear to be in a good spot after his early exit Saturday, with the defender viewed limping off the field before he was taken off at halftime. Early signs may show the defender will be out for a while, although he still has to undergo testing. This will leave the club with Adbukodir Khusanov to see more minutes along side Ruben Dias, with Manuel Akanji (groin) and John Stones (thigh) also injured.

Among substitutes Ake (undisclosed) is on the bench for Wednesday's match against Real Madrid.

Impact Ake is back with the team after seeing the questionable tag ahead of the contest, finding a spot on the bench after clearing his undisclosed issues. He has not appeared in a match and missed the start since Dec. 21, so he will hope to return to the starting XI next contest now that he is fit.

Questionable for Wednesday Ake (undisclosed) is questionable for Wednesday's match against Real Madrid, according to manager Pep Guardiola. "Yes, he has traveled, we will see tomorrow but it's good he is her...

Impact Ake is going to be a late call for Wednesday's contest, as he is traveling with the team but has not yet been cleared. That said, he will likely be subjected to a late fitness test, with that deciding if he can play or not. Even if he is fit, his chances of making the starting XI seem slim.

FEBRUARY 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Tuesday Ake (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Tuesday's match against Real Madrid.

Impact Ake is back with the team after around a month out, last playing on Jan. 19. He is immediately seeing the start, returning to his regular spot. He should remain in a starting role moving forward if he remains fit, as he has started in 11 of his 13 appearances, although he does have more competition after a few winter signings.
