Issa Doumbia - Unused against Roma Doumbia (knock) didn't play in Sunday's 1-0 defeat versus Roma.

Ionut Radu - Concedes once versus Roma Radu had three saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Roma.

Impact Gytkjaer has primarily been a bench option this season, playing less than 18 minutes per game since late August. However, he played nearly 30 minutes off the bench against Udinese and scored his first goal of the season. This performance could lead the coach to give him more playing time in upcoming fixtures. His next opportunity to make an impact comes against Roma on Sunday.

Hans Nicolussi Caviglia - Scores direct free-kick Saturday Caviglia scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 3-2 defeat to Udinese.

Impact Caviglia scored a stunning direct free-kick goal in the 64th minute against Udinese, marking his fourth goal of the season in Serie A.

Jesse Joronen - Concedes three in loss Joronen registered two saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-2 loss versus Udinese.

Impact Joronen played 72 minutes on Saturday after starting goalie Filip Stankovic was injured (knee) early in the game. Joronen began the season as the starter before losing his spot in early October. Against Udinese, he made two saves but conceded three goals, unable to prevent his team from losing.

FEBRUARY 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Filip Stankovic - Dealing with knee injury Stankovic "suffered a patellar tendon problem that looks significant," coach Eusebio Di Francesco announced.

Impact Stankovic twisted his knee while punting the ball and had to be helped off the pitch by the medical staff as he struggled to put weight on his leg. Jesse Joronen wasn't great in relief, so the team might seek another goalie on the transfer market if the issue is as severe as it appears.

FEBRUARY 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Filip Stankovic - Off early Saturday Stankovic was forced off in the first half of Saturday's match against Udinese due to injury.

FEBRUARY 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Mikael Ellertsson - Will join Genoa in the summer Ellertsson has been acquired by Genoa and loaned back to Venezia for the second half of the season, the two teams announced.

Impact Ellertsson earned the move to a slightly bigger side with his performances but will finish the campaign with his current one. The move shouldn't affect his status going forward, but might affect his minutes against Udinese since he skipped a pair of sessions to complete the transfer. He'll split time with Alessio Zerbin, Francesco Zampano and Franco Carboni going forward.

JANUARY 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Kike Perez - Transfers to Venezia Perez has agreed to a contract until 2027 upon joining Venezia from Valladolid, the club announced.

JANUARY 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Alessandro Marcandalli - Moves to Venezia Marcandalli has officially joined Venezia on loan from Genoa for the rest of the season.

JANUARY 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Joel Schingtienne - Unused against Verona Schingtienne (undisclosed) didn't feature in Monday's 1-1 draw with Venezia.
