Wajdi Kechrida - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Unavailable in final games Kechrida was a healthy scratch in 12 of the last 13 matches of the campaign.

Impact Kechrida was a regular in the final half of the campaign but fell out of favor when the team signed Pasquale Mazzocchi and Matteo Ruggeri returned from injury. He has posted one assist, 32 crosses (ten accurate), nine tackles, 13 clearances and eight interceptions in 17 appearances (ten starts).

Assists in road loss Kechrida assisted one goal from his only chance created, sent in one accurate cross and made one clearace in Sunday's 4-1 loss at Napoli.

Impact Kechrida assisted Federico Bonazzoli's equalizer in the 33rd minute, but it wasn't enough to avoid the loss on the road. That was his first goal in the season, and he had a quiet overall performance -- as his side was completely dominated. He will now look to improve his numbers when they host Spezia on Feb 7.

Dropped from AFCON squad Kechrida has reported back from Tunisias as he was excluded from the squad list for the upcoming AFCON and he is believed to have since shaken off COVID-19, Il Mattino reports.

Impact Kechrida should be an option for Sunday's game versus Verona, although the club has not been very forthcoming about their COVID-19 cases. If that was the case, he would probably get the start since the squad will be very depleted. He has posted 30 crosses, eight tackles, seven interceptions and 12 clearances in 14 matches so far.

Tests positive for COVID-19 Kechrida has tested positive for COVID-19 before joining Tunisia for the African Cup of Nations, the national team informed.

Impact Kechirda turned out to be part of the outbreak that did not allow Salernitana to travel for the Udinese game. For the time being, he remains part of the squad for the competition despite the infection, and therefore he will be unavailable for at least the next three matches, and potentially more depending on how Tunisia fare. Nadir Zortea, Frederic Veseli and Filippo Delli Carri will pick up the slack.

Racks up nine crosses Kechrida registered nine crosses (one accurate), one shot (off target) and two corners versus Verona on Wednesday.

Impact Kechrida has recorded a team-high 21 crosses this season while also serving as the primary corner taker (seven). When it comes to corners, the midfielder figures to continue splitting the role with Frank Ribery but remains a top-end fantasy target.

Creates three chances in loss Kechrida created three chances from seven crosses (three accurate) during Sunday's 4-0 loss to Salernitana.

Impact Kechrida has been productive as a wing-back with five chances created from 12 crosses against Bologna and Torino, but barely did a thing as the right-back in a back five against Roma. Should he feature in the more productive of the two positions, Kechrida could garner more attention beginning with Saturday's match against Atalanta.
