Out against Newcastle

Aina (undisclosed) is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Newcastle United.

Analysis: Aina has been unable to recover in time for the weekend, confirming the low chances of making the team that had surrounded him as one of numerous Nottingham players currently on the injured list with an undisclosed injury. His absence is a further blow for a side already severely stretched for options, with Neco Williams and Luca Netz set to form the full-back pairing in his place as the coaching staff continue to manage a lengthy list of absentees. His struggles with injuries throughout the season have been a recurring frustration, and his return timeline will be monitored closely in the coming days as the campaign enters its final stages.

Late call to face Magpies

Aina (undisclosed) is doubtful for Sunday's match against Newcastle, according to manager Vitor Pereira, per Sarah Clapson of the Nottingham Post.

Analysis: Aina is one of the numerous Nottingham players to be on the injured list this week, as he is still unable to return from an undisclosed injury. His chances of making the team appear to be low, a rough development for the full-back who has struggled with injuries throughout the season. Even if he is fit, a bench spot is likely the best he will do, with Neco Williams and Luca Netz as a possible full-back pairing due to Aina's absence.
