This comes after he missed most of last season due to injury, although this appeared to be more of a tactical move.

Hardly plays Lemar made just three appearances (three starts) due to injury.
Impact Lemar started three of the first four matches before an injury shut him down for the remainder of the season. The good news is that his Achilles injury was seemingly healed by the end of the season, he just hadn't recovered match fitness yet. Lemar will have the offseason to try and put this disappointing season behind him.

Spotted back in training Monday Lemar (Achilles) has been spotted back in training Monday.
Impact Lemar was spotted back in training, but Wednesday's clash against Borussia Dortmund might be too soon for him to make a return.

Undergoes Achilles surgery Lemar had surgery Monday to repair a torn Achilles tendon and will be out indefinitely.
Impact At best, Lemar could still return in late February or early March based on the absolute shortest end of a potential recovery timeline. That's far from a guarantee either, as the midfielder could miss the entirety of the 2023/24 campaign as a result of his serious Achilles injury. Prior to getting hurt, Lemar started all three of his appearances for the club in which he recorded two shots (zero on target), six crosses (one accurate) and two corners. With Rodrigo De Paul (thigh) also injured, Saul could be pressed into the starting XI in Lemar's stead.

Impact Lemar has not been able to train Friday or Saturday due to the injury, and while he hasn't been completely ruled out yet, his chances of featuring against Rayo are close to zero.

Impact Lemar spent another season as a backup option in the midfield, failing to keep a consistent starting role since his arrival in 2019. He is expected to stay with the club long-term after signing a contract extension last year, but will likely continue to be the back up for Koke and Rodrigo de Paul.
