Impact Onuachu is expected to return against Tottenham as previously planned, with the forward getting the call-up already. This is solid news, although he has only started in one of his six appearances this season, missing out eight times through injury. He will likely only see a bench spot Sunday, just looking to see time to test his legs.

Impact Onuachu picked up the injury against Liverpool and was hopeful to return earlier, but hasn't quite been able to. It now seems he will be back for a Dec. 15 clash with Tottenham, putting him about a week away from a return. Onuachu was injured during his first start of the season.

Misses out against Blues Onuachu (undisclosed) is out for Wednesday's match against Chelsea.

Impact Onuachu didn't make the final team sheet after being a late call Wednesday, missing his second straight match due to his issues. He was hopeful for a return Wednesday, so a return Saturday against Villa should be even more likely. If that is the case, he will probably only see a spot on the bench.

Hopeful for Wednesday Onuachu (undisclosed) is questionable for Tuesday's match against Chelsea, according to manager Russell Martin. "We're hopeful that Paul will be involved on Wednesday."

Impact Onuachu could be back with the team Tuesday, as he is questionable heading into the contest. It appears his availability is likely coming down to a fitness test, being an option if he passes. He will hope to return after missing the last match, although he is likely to only see a bench spot if fit.

Not playing vs. Seagulls Onuachu (undisclosed) is out for Friday's game against Southampton.

Impact Onuachu was questionable for Friday's match due to what was described as a "niggle", but it seems the striker wasn't deemed fit enough to feature. His next chance will come against Chelsea on Wednesday.

Picks up small issue Onuachu is questionable for Friday's match against Brighton, according to manager Russell Martin. "Paul's being assessed, so fingers crossed Paul will come through alright. It's no...

Impact Onuachu is currently being assessed, leaving his availability for Friday in question. It will likely come down to a late fitness test, with the player deciding if he can play or not right ahead of game time. He has only started in one of his six appearances this campaign, so he is likely to only serve off the bench against Arsenal either way.

Injured in first start Onuachu was injured and subbed out in the 52nd minute during Sunday's 3-2 loss to Liverpool.

Impact Onuachu was able to get his first start of the season, having previously come off the bench five times prior. He will now suffer another setback after having missed the opening matches of the campaign with a back injury. The forward has collected 111 minutes of play in six games, only recording three shots in that span.

Ready for minutes Onuachu played 16 minutes off the bench before the break, and is now finally fit.

Impact Onuachu missed the opening six Premier League matches due to the same injury that sidelined him throughout pre-season. He's now fit and seems to be ready for some sort of bench role in the coming weeks. Still barring injuries elsewhere it's doubtful he really pushes into the starting XI.

Ends season injured Onuachu ended the season injured, failing to appear in four of the final six matches.

Impact Onuachu failed to score and then late-season injuries derailed any chance of him finding the back of the net. He started three of the first four matches once joining Southampton in the January transfer window, but after some managerial changes, he lost favor and never found a role under Ruben Selles. He figures to get plenty of time in the Championship next season.

Out for season finale Onuachu is not in the match day squad to face Liverpool on Sunday.

Impact Onuachu misses out on Sunday's squad as he was unable to recover from a back injury in time to feature in the season finale. The forward ends the year with no goals or assists in 11 appearances.

MAY 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with back injury Onuachu will be a doubt versus Liverpool on Sunday due to a back problem. Manager Ruben Selles told reporters, "Paul [Onuachu] is a doubt with a back problem."

Impact Onuachu heads into the season finale having played in 11 matches for the club, including four starts, in which he generated 11 shots (five on target), four clearances and four chances created. Considering his infrequent starts, the forward's potential absence against Liverpool is unlikely to significantly impact the starting XI.

MAY 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Should be ready Monday Onuachu (undisclosed) has been training this week and is expected to be available for Monday's match against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Onuachu has been dealing with an undisclosed injury for the last two matches, but returned to training and could be an option as soon as Monday. He's only started three times in nine appearances since signing from Genk in February. The forward has yet to score for the team, recording just seven shots (four on tareget) and four chances created thus far.

Impact Onuachu is one of two forward signings Southampton made on deadline day, though he's a bit older at 28 years old.
