Out for rest of season Boly will not feature again this season after being left out of the club's Premier League and Europa League squads due to a knee injury, according to manager Sean Dyche, per Sarah...
Impact Boly is not going to be with the club for the rest of the season, as they decided it was better to let the defender focus on the recovery from a knee injury rather than push him to play again this season. The major storyline here is that Boly has potentially played his last minutes for the club, as he runs out of contract at the end of the season. He only featured off the bench once all season for a minute of play, so this will be a minor loss for the club.

Back in Forest, not in plans Boly is back from international duty at the AFCON and an option moving forward for Nottingham Forest, according to AOL.
Impact Boly is back in Nottingham following his international duty at the AFCON with Ivory Coast. That said, the defender appears to be out of the plans of coach Sean Dyche, as he hasn't made the squad since early December. Boly has a contract running until June 2026, which suggests he could be on the move in the coming weeks or months and is unlikely to see playing time with the club after logging him only one minute this season.
JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE
Heads back to Nottingham Boly is heading back to Nottingham after completing his international duty with Ivory Coast at the AFCON and should be back available for Saturday's clash against Arsenal.
Impact Boly was eliminated with Ivory Coast from the AFCON and will now head back to Nottingham and should be back available for Saturday's clash against the Gunners. The defender has been a bench option only for Forest this season and is unlikely to see more minutes in the second half of the campaign.
JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE
Going to AFCON Boly is heading to AFCON with Ivory Coast, and will be away from his club for at least three weeks.
Impact Boly has made only one appearance this season, and that was a single minute off the bench in the Europa League. Even when he's been fit, Boly has done little to compete in the first team and his absence won't change anything for the squad in the coming weeks.

Charlotte FC's Wilfried Zaha recalled to Ivory Coast squad for AFCON after two-year absence as Amad Diallo also makes cut - but former Arsenal player Nicolas Pepe misses out
Signs new deal with Forest Boly will remain at the club for one more season after signing a new deal with Nottingham Forest through the summer of 2026, the club announced. "Willy is an experienced Premier Le...
Impact Boly has played 45 times for Forest since arriving in 2022, becoming a key figure in Nuno Espirito Santo's setup. The Ivorian defender, who won AFCON last year, also brings valuable European experience from spells with Porto in the Champions League and with SC Braga and Wolves in the Europa League. With European football returning to Nottingham, his leadership on and off the pitch will be essential in navigating a busy campaign.

Option off bench Boly (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's clash with Fulham.
Impact Boly is back on the bench as expected after training earlier in the week. The defender has been a backup when fit, and shouldn't push into the starting XI outside of rotation.
SEPTEMBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Spotted in training Boly (calf) was spotted in training Friday and could be an option to face Fulham on Saturday.
Impact Boly has missed two games in a row due to a nagging calf injury, but seeing the center-back in training could open the door for his return to action, possibly as early as Saturday in this match against the Cottagers. Boly hasn't started since the season opener against Bournemouth on Aug. 17.
SEPTEMBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Won't face Brighton Boly (calf) is making progress but won't be available to face Brighton on Sunday, manager Nuno Espirito Santo told media Friday. "The same players are out. [Willy] Boly is really c...
Impact Boly has been making progress from a nagging calf injury that has limited him to just two appearances this season, and the center-back hasn't featured since coming off the bench in the 1-0 win over Southampton on Aug. 24. Boly is trending in the right direction, though, and he could have a shot at playing against Fulham on Sep. 28.
SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Doubtful Saturday Boly (calf) is a doubt for Saturday's clash with Liverpool, according to manager Nuno Espirito Santo. "Boly has a calf injury. We are assessing all of them. We still have one more...
Impact Boly returned from international duty with the calf issue, and hasn't been active in full training. He's unlikely to make a recovery in time for Saturday's clash, and even if he can get back to passable fitness, he likely wouldn't have been a starter either way.
SEPTEMBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Leaves national team duty early Boly has returned to England after going down with an injury while serving with the Ivory Coast, according to manager Fae Emerse, per Lavenir.ci. "Regarding Willy's absence, I simp...
Impact Boly has been added to the injury list as he returns from national team duty, having gone down with a calf issue during training. He has yet to receive further testing from his club, so a timetable and the severity of the injury are still unknown. He currently sits as questionable for the club's upcoming match, although it doesn't appear he would be the biggest loss after only seeing one minute of play in the club's last two contests.
SEPTEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Staying at Forest Boly signed a new, one-year deal with Nottingham Forest with the option for a second.
Impact Boly was a favorite of Nuno Espirito Santo to close out the season, resulting in four-straight starts following a month out with injury. He finished with 18 starts from 20 appearances and could be used more frequently next campaign as long as he can stay healthy. But as always with Forest, new transfers in the summer could change the lineup over the next three months.
MAY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Logs in goal Boly scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Chelsea.
Impact Boly was able score one of the two goals for Nottingham on Saturday. Since returning from injury, the defender had logged in a goal and an assist in the last three matches, generating 12 clearances and 14 tackles in that span.

Boosts attack with assist Boly assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Saturday's 3-1 victory versus Sheffield United.
Impact Boly provided his first assist of the season Saturday as Nottingham Forest defeated Sheffield United 3-1. Boly has never registered more than one assist in a campaign during his time in the Premier League. Since returning from a five match absence, Boly has started two successive matches. Over that span, he's made 11 tackles (seven won), two interceptions, five clearances and four blocks.
MAY 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Cleared to start Boly (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Sheffield United.
Impact Boly is good to go as expected following an early exit last week against Manchester City. The defender makes his second consecutive start in the Forest back line.
MAY 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Avoids injury Boly (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's trip to Sheffield United, according to manager Nuno Espirito Santo."Willy has recovered. He is OK."
Impact Boly was forced off with a knock last time out but it appears the injury is minor. With no major concern, the defender should be straight back in the starting XI for Saturday's match. Injuries have plagued Boly of late, so it's possible he's dealing with multiple minor issues.
MAY 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Leaves field early Boly appears to have picked up an injury after coming off the field in the 84th minute of Sunday's 2-0 loss to Manchester City, according to manager Nuno Espirito Santos, per Sarah...
Impact Boly could be heading back to the sidelines immediately, as he just returned from injury Sunday but was forced off the field later into the match and is now set for testing due to injury. This has been a brutal run for the defender, as he has only appeared in two games since Jan 20 due to numerous injuries. He will now hope for the best from his testing, but if he misses time, expect Moussa Niakhate or Andrew Omobamidele to serve in his place.
APRIL 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Starting vs. Man City Boly (strain) is in the starting lineup to face Manchester City on Sunday.
Impact Boly will make an immediate return to the starting lineup after missing five games in a row, and the defender will have a daunting task dealing with the front three of Jeremy Doku, Julian Alvarez and Jack Grealish. Boly has made just one start since the beginning of January, and the best bet for him to get fantasy value would be to rack up ton of defensive stats or, in a best-case scenario, get an unlikely clean sheet.
APRIL 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Still in treatement Boly (strain) is out for Sunday's trip to Tottenham, according to manager Nuno Espirito Santo.
Impact Boly was listed among the long-term injured players and is still in treatment for a muscular injury. There's no specific timeline on his return but it seems the injury might be worse than originally feared. Injuries have held Boly to just a single appearance since he departed for AFCON.
APRIL 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Still sidelined Boly (strain) is out for Tuesday's match against Fulham.
Impact Boly will remain on the sidelines for a further match, now missing his second straight match due to a strain. The defender will now hope to shake off the issue by the weekend for Saturday's match against Tottenham, as he has only appeared once in the club's past 10 games due to injuries.
APRIL 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Out with strain Boly (strain) is not in the squad to face Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Impact Boly misses out on Saturday's match after picking up a muscle strain on international duty. Murillo and Felipe will partner in the center of Forest's back line Saturday.
MARCH 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers muscle injury with Ivory Coast Boly was forced off with a muscle injury while representing Ivory Coast and is set to be questionable for Saturday's match with Crystal Palace, per the Nottinghamshire Live.
Impact Boly had made just one appearances for Nottingham since Jan 20, having just returned from an undisclosed injury. Even if he is ruled fit, the defender will likely start on the bench with Murillo and Andrew Omobamidele the expected pair at center back for the clash with Crystal Palace. Boly started 14 of the 16 games played, logging in a goal on 68 clearances, 32 tackles (19 won) and 20 interceptions.
MARCH 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Among substitutes Sunday Boly (undisclosed) is in the squad to face Brighton on Sunday.
Impact Boly was a doubt in the buildup to the match, but has recovered to at least feature in Sunday's squad. The defender has not made an appearance in 2024 due to injury.
MARCH 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Doubtful Sunday Boly (undisclosed) is a doubt for Sunday's clash with Brighton, according to manager Nuno Espirito Santo.
Impact Boly will be a heavy doubt for Sunday's clash despite getting back in team training earlier in the week. The defender's status is reportedly unchanged from the clash with Liverpool that he missed. Still his injury wasn't expected to be serious so there's a chance he could earn a spot on the bench Sunday.
