Returns to bench Bornauw (ankle) is on the bench for Sunday's clash with Chelsea in the FA Cup.
Impact Bornauw was expected to be back fit for Sunday's clash and he's done just that. He's back on the bench Sunday and available for some role. He's been a limited player even when fully fit, so this is his normal role, especially with Jayden Bogle (foot) starting.

Picks up injury, likely to play Bornauw is suffering from a slight ankle injury but is still likely to be an option Sunday against Chelsea, according to manager Daniel Farke. "During the warm-up, he rolled his an...
Impact Bornauw has a few question marks heading into Sunday, but he appears to be on the better side of the injury, as it looks like he will be an option if he trains Friday. This is good news for the club as they could be without Jayden Bogle (foot), likely to force Bornauw into the starting defense if fit, and Bogle misses out. That said, if he trains this week and passes fitness testing Sunday, the defender could very well see an elevated role from his depth spot.
APRIL 23 • ROTOWIRE
On bench in return Bornauw (groin) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Fulham.
Impact Bornauw is named on the bench for Saturday's clash against the Cottagers after returning to team training following a minor groin injury. He was forced off at the break of Sunday's Carabao Cup win and is eased back into action as a substitute option. The defender had started three of his last four appearances and remains part of the starting plans moving forward.
JANUARY 17 • ROTOWIRE
Could return against Fulham Bornauw (groin) could return for Saturday's clash against Fulham after resuming team training, coach Daniel Farke said in the press conference. "Sebastiaan is back in training."
Impact Bornauw was forced off at the break of Sunday's win in the Carabao Cup due to a minor groin injury but the defender is already back in team training and could be an option for Saturday's clash against the Cottagers. Bornauw started three of his last four appearances and could play a decent role for Leeds United moving forward.
JANUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers minor groin injury Bornauw was forced off at the break in Sunday's victory in the Carabao Cup due to a minor groin injury, coach Daniel Farke said in a press conference, according to Leeds Live. "I t...
Impact Bornauw will have to be assessed in the coming days after suffering a minor groin injury in Sunday's win in the Carabao Cup. The issue appears to be minor and he will hope to recover before Saturday's clash against Fulham since he has started three of his last appearances with Leeds United. Joe Rodon will take a larger role in the back-three if the injury proves to be more serious than expected.
JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE
Three clearances in draw Bornauw recorded one cross (one accurate) and one tackle in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Manchester United.
Impact With Joe Rodon (ankle) unavailable, Bornauw has started the last two matches after playing just two minutes all season, delivering steady defensive performances. He recorded one tackle per game and added three interceptions and nine clearances across the two appearances.
JANUARY 5 • ROTOWIRE
Just dealing with fatigue Bornauw was taken off due to fatigue in Thursday's 0-0 draw against Liverpool, according to manager Daniel Farke. "For Sebastiaan's first game in the starting line-up, for Ilia, fi...
Impact Bornauw was taken off the field late into Thursday's field after his first appearance in around a month with what appeared to be an injury, but looks to only be dealing with fatigue. This is solid news for the club, although they will wait to see if he is still ready for starting minutes again come Sunday's match against Manchester United. If he is unable to start, the club will likely need to move a wing-back more central to keep their three-back or turn to Sam Byram, who has yet to start this campaign.
JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Forced off against Liverpool Bornauw abandoned Thursday's game versus Liverpool with a potential knock.
Impact Bornauw was replaced by Jayden Bogle following an 83-minute performance in his first EPL start of the season. The Belgian had a decent defensive performance, though his fitness status is now a major concern heading into Sunday's clash against Manchester United.
JANUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to bench Bornauw (knee) is on the bench for Wednesday's clash with Chelsea.
Impact Bournauw was deemed a late-fitness test last time out, but didn't play. This time around he was able to pass the late check and is back available off the bench. He profiles as a depth option in the defense even when fully fit, and has yet to make his Leeds debut.
DECEMBER 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Not available Saturday Bornauw (knee) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Manchester City.
Impact Bornauw suffered an injury around three weeks ago but is nearing his return to play, as the defender was a late call for Saturday's outing. His testing ahead of the match was not expected to be sufficient for him to take part, leaving the defender out of contention despite progressing in his recovery. Even once he is fit, a minor role is expected for him, having yet to see the field this season, so his return will likely need to wait beyond Saturday.
NOVEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Late call to face City Bornauw (knee) is questionable for Saturday's match against Manchester City, according to manager Daniel Farke. "Sebastiaan will be a late call."
Impact Bornauw suffered an injury around three weeks ago but is nearing his return to play, as the defender is a late call for Saturday's outing. This should leave him with some testing ahead of Saturday's match, with that deciding if that is enough for the defender to return. Even once he is fit, a minor role is expected, having yet to see the field this season.
NOVEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Remains out Bornauw (knee) is out for Sunday's match against Aston Villa.
Impact Bornauw is not in the call Sunday despite some speculations that the defender could be in for a return, as he is still sidelined due to the knee injury. However, with the defender almost returning, a return to full fitness should be on the horizon, possibly next match when facing Manchester City.
NOVEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Expected to be available Bornauw (knee) could be available for Sunday's match against Aston Villa, manager Daniel Farke told media during Friday's pre-match press conference. "Everyone is available," he sa...
Impact Bornauw missed Leeds' game against Nottingham Forest before the break, but based on Farke's words during the presser, Bornauw should be in contention to make the bench this weekend. The defender has yet to play this season, so he won't carry a lot of fantasy upside if he ends up being available.
NOVEMBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Missing Sunday Bornauw (knee) is out for Sunday's match against Nottingham Forest.
Impact Bornaum is not in the call Sunday after suffering an MCL injury heading into the match, with the defender out and using the international break to recover. This is rough news for the defender, but it is a minor issue for the club, as he has yet to see the field this season and is more of a depth option.
NOVEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers MCL injury Bornauw is questionable for Sunday's match against Nottingham Forest due to a knee injury, accoridng to manager Daniel Farke. "Little question mark behind Sebastiaan. He got a hit...
Impact Bornauw suffered an injury in training this week and is now battling his fitness to be an option Sunday, likley needing to pass some testing to be an option. Ths good news for the club is he has yet to appear in a league match this season, so this is a minor loss. Even if he is to feature, the defender will likely earn a spot on the bench in a depth role.
NOVEMBER 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Unused on bench Bornauw (calf) went unused on the bench during Monday's 1-0 win over Everton.
Impact Bornauw was back on the bench after recovering from a calf injury, but went unused. The defender should have some role to play when he's fully fit, but he might be a bench option, at least to start the season. Bornauw was limited to 15 appearances (eight starts) for Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga last season.
AUGUST 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Back in training Bornauw (calf) resumed training this week and could be an option to face Everton on Monday, manager Daniel Farke told media during his pre-match press conference Friday.
Impact Bornauw missed considerable time during the pre-season while nursing a calf problem, but Bornauw confirmed that the defender has already returned to training. It's unclear if he'll be fit enough to see action Monday, but he could at least make the bench due to the lack of depth at the back. Jaka Bijol is out suspended and Jayden Bogle is doubtful due to a hip flexor issue.
AUGUST 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Struggling with calf Bornauw is struggling with a calf injury, according to LeedsLive.
Impact Bornauw suffered the calf injury in his first training session with the club. The defender has missed all of the friendlies throughout pre-season due to the same concern. Even if he recovers before the Premier League opener, it's uncertain if he would be thrown into the starting XI with no pre-season to get fit.
AUGUST 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Signs with Leeds Bornauw joined Leeds on a permanent deal from Wolfsburg, the club announced.
Impact Bornauw made an official move to Leeds after a disappointing season with Wolfsburg. He's a talented defender, who could take on some minutes for Leeds, but he didn't excel during just 15 appearances last season.
JULY 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Limited minutes Bornauw scored twice and assisted once in 15 appearances (eight starts) in the Bundesliga.
Impact Bornauw played a limited bench role, largely due to a bevy of injuries throughout the campaign. The defender wasn't a major starter even when fully fit though, playing off the bench for the most part. Bornauw has a year left on his deal and seems to be set for a depth role next season.
MAY 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
On bench Saturday Bornauw (foot) is on the bench for Saturday's game against Monchengladbach.
Impact As expected, Bornauw is back in the squad for the season finale. He could see minutes down the stretch, but he shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy appeal in any format.
MAY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Should be back next week Bornauw (foot) should ideally be back in full force next week, new coach Daniel Bauer said in the press conference.
Impact Bornauw missed the last five games due to a foot injury but could ideally be back in full force next week for the season finale against Gladbach. That said, he has only been a bench option this season and his potential return shoudn't impact the starting XI.
MAY 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Runs, still unlikely to return Bornauw (foot) was able to run in training Tuesday but is still unlikely to see the field again this season, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl, per Wolfsburger Allgemeine.
Impact Bornauw was announced as unlikely to return this season a few weeks ago and seems to still be on the same trajectory, but with a bit of a boost. The defender was able to train again, although it was only some running on the side of the pitch. That said, a return still seems far away, likely eyeing the 2025/26 campaign already.
APRIL 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Unlikely returning this season Bornauw (foot) will unlikely return this season, coach Ralph Hasenhuttl said in the press conference. "Sabastiaan has problems with his metatarsal, and it will probably be difficul...
Impact Bornauw is unlikely to feature again this season after sustaining a foot injury that will sideline him for at least one month. His absence is not expected to affect the starting lineup as he has mostly served as a bench option this season.
