Plays half an hour against Atalanta Loftus-Cheek (thigh) had one off-target shot and one clearance and drew one foul in 28 minutes in Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Atalanta.

Impact Loftus-Cheek came in relatively early and, while he didn't fill the stat sheet, he could have had an assist on a great flick-on after a deep channel run had his teammate capitalized on his feed. He could be back in the starting lineup in a very attacking role versus Roma since Rafael Leao (hip) and Santiago Gimenez (ankle) are both dinged up.

Good to go for Atalanta game Loftus-Cheek (thigh) "will be on the bench Tuesday," coach Massimiliano Allegri stated.

He has scored once in six appearances (three starts), adding 11 shots (two on target), four chances created and four crosses (zero accurate).

Missing Sunday Loftus-Cheek (thigh) is out for Sunday's match against Fiorentina.

Impact Loftus-Cheek was not entirely fit heading into Sunday and is now going to miss more time, as the midfielder is not on the team sheet Sunday. He will look to return in their next match and work towards returning to a starting role, as he started in their first three games of the season before three appearances off the bench.

OCTOBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Not entirely fit Loftus-Cheek is at risk for Sunday's clash with Fiorentina because of muscle fatigue, Mediaset reported.

Scores opener in win Loftus-Cheek scored a goal off four shots (two on target) and created one chance during Friday's 2-0 win over Lecce.

Impact Loftus-Cheek was once again very busy on the attacking end, pacing his team in shots attempted, which included the header off a free-kick cross that opened the scoring for Milan midway through the second half. The versatile midfielder can be deployed on both sides of the ball but right now he's thriving playing just behind the striker, with four shots in both starts he had and this goal could be just the first of many if he keeps performing at this level.

Will undergo sudden surgery Loftus-Cheek has been diagnosed with acute appendicitis after experiencing abdominal pain while on retreat, Sky Italy reported.

Impact Loftus-Cheek is back from his thigh injury Saturday, fit enough to earn a spot on the bench to face Como. This ends a long absence dating back to Dec. 11, likely to continue in a rotational spot moving forward, only starting in 10 of his 19 appearances before the injury.

MARCH 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Set to return versus Como Loftus-Cheek (thigh) "is almost 100 percent, but isn't ready to play 90 minutes yet. We hope to have him healthy the rest of the way," coach Sergio Conceicao announced.

Impact Loftus-Cheek last played in December due to a thigh strain and a couple of setbacks while rehabbing. He had troubles producing as much as last season and had lost a regular spot in formation. He'll deputize Youssouf Fofana, Tijjani Reijnders and Yunus Musah while he works his way back to full fitness. He has notched 12 chances created, eight shots (four on target) and 18 tackles in 19 appearances (ten starts).
