Takehiro Tomiyasu - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Another injury, out further month Tomiyasu (calf) is out until after the next international break, according to manager Pierre Sage. "Takehiro is out until the next international break because he has another injury...

Impact Tomiyasu will not be returning anytime soon after already missing the past three games with a calf injury, as the defender has suffered a new injury that will leave him out for close to the next month, eyeing a return after the international break. This will leave the club with limited depth in the center of defense, although it doesn't shake up too much starting XI-wise. The main goal moving forward for the defender will be to recover and avoid further injury, already missing a good chunk of the first half of the campaign.

Calf injury keeps him sidelined Tomiyasu (calf) will miss Sunday's Premier League clash against Brighton, extending his absence after being unable to regain full fitness ahead of the fixture.

Impact Tomiyasu has remained sidelined since suffering a calf injury during the draw against Leeds United, which forced him off at halftime. The Japanese defender subsequently missed the matches against Nottingham Forest and Lyon, and Sunday's omission represents another setback in his recovery. Tomiyasu has started twice this season but has yet to establish a consistent run of appearances due to his fitness concerns. Chris Richards and Jaydee Canvot remain available to cover in central defense, while Tomiyasu's next opportunity to return will depend on his progress in training.

Impact Tomiyasu has been sidelined since suffering a calf injury during the draw against Leeds United, which forced him off at halftime. The defender subsequently missed the matches against Nottingham Forest and Lyon, with Brighton now representing another potential opportunity for his return. However, his participation remains uncertain, as Palace will need to evaluate his response to the final training sessions before deciding whether he can rejoin the squad. Tomiyasu has started twice this season but faces competition from Chris Richards and Jaydee Canvot for a place in Palace's defense.

Impact Tomiyasu has failed to recover in time for Sunday's clash against Nottingham Forest after suffering a calf injury during the draw against Leeds United, which forced him off at halftime. The defender is now expected to return either against Lyon or Brighton on Oct. 18, suggesting his absence should not extend much further. Tomiyasu has started twice this season but faces competition from Chris Richards and Jaydee Canvot for a place in Palace's defense, meaning a starting role is not guaranteed once he returns.

Impact Tomiyasu got a chance to play from kickoff for the second time this season but was subbed off for Jefferson Lerma after contributing to his team's clean sheet with a pair of clearances and one block. The Japanese international is now at risk of missing future matches, but there's hope that his recovery will be a quick one and he'll be back in contention for the next league clash against Nottingham. However, he's not a safe starter as he battles for a spot among more regular options such as Chris Richards and Jaydee Canvot.

Comes on as red card substitute Tomiyasu generated one tackle (one won), three clearances and one interception in Saturday's 3-2 defeat versus Ipswich Town.

Impact Tomiyasu came on after 37 minutes for Yeremi Pino after Axel Disasi was sent off. The defender won his only tackle, made an interception and contributed three clearances. The Japanese international could be afforded more minutes now with a suspension looming for Disasi.

SEPTEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Makes late defensive cameo Tomiyasu registered one interception in Saturday's 2-0 defeat versus Everton.

Impact Tomiyasu came on in the 72nd minute to replace an injured Chadi Riad, registering one interception across his 18 minutes as Crystal Palace closed out Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Everton. The Japanese international's availability now gives manager Pierre Sage an experienced option to fill the left side of the back three during Riad's absence, and with the Moroccan defender potentially sidelined for a significant period, Tomiyasu is expected to step into a starting role immediately heading into the Manchester City fixture.

Impact Tomiyasu has missed two matches in a row since coming back from the international break, and seems to be struggling with a knee issue.

Returns to bench Tomiyasu (knee) is on the bench for Saturday's clash with Southampton.

Impact Tomiyasu is getting close to a return and could be back before the international break. The defender has been working back from a knee injury and progressing slowly, but seems to be in the very final stages.

He will likely still need around one to two more weeks before a return, probably being close to an option after the international break.
