Out Sunday

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

Analysis: Ndoye has been unable to pass the fitness testing that had been set as the deciding factor in his potential return, extending his wait for minutes despite having been unused on the bench in Thursday's UEL clash and eyeing a comeback this weekend. The winger has been working toward a return and remains close to availability, but the questions surrounding his condition have proven too significant to clear him for Sunday's contest. His inclusion in the squad appears imminent in the coming fixtures as he continues to build his fitness, with a bench role expected to be his starting point upon his eventual return.

Could return Sunday

Ndoye (undisclosed) is a possibility for Sunday's match against Newcastle, according to manager Vitor Pereira, per Sarah Clapson of the Nottingham Post. "I think Dan maybe can come back. (Today) is the day to understand the situation."

Analysis: Ndoye is still working for a return and appears to be close, as he is now eyeing a potential return Sunday. This comes after he was unused in UEL play, appearing on the bench but still looking for minutes since suffering the injury. His addition to the team will likely depend on some fitness testing, although with some questions remaining, a bench spot is likely the best he will do.

Unused substitute in UEL loss

Ndoye (undisclosed) was an unused substitute during Thursday's UEFA Europa League loss to Aston Villa.

Analysis: Ndoye regained enough fitness to appear among the bench options but failed to make his comeback after dealing with an injury over the past few weeks. The winger, who hasn't seen competitive action since April 16, could aim to play a meaningful role in the last few games of the campaign. In that case, he'll compete for starts with Omari Hutchinson, Dilane Bakwa and James McAtee on the flanks.

Fitness in doubt

Ndoye (undisclosed) is doubtful for Thursday's match against Aston Villa, according to manager Vitor Pereira, per Sarah Clapson of The Nottingham Post. "Not because I have doubts about Morgan, but because I have doubts about the injured players, I will delay my decisions. But in my mind, I have plans A, B and C. We have a lot of (injury) doubts. bout the (injured) players, I have a lot of doubts. I think today we will have a meeting and decide to look for the army and to understand the soldiers! To go into the battle, I prefer to go with the healthy soldiers. We'll see."

Analysis: Ndoye had to miss out on Monday's match as his absence continues and appears unlikely to return for UEL action, just another player listed as doubtful for Forest. This is a rough spell for the attacker, as he has yet to play in their past four games, leaving him unlikely to see much time even if he is selected for the team Thursday. If he is to be deemed fit, he could be a solid substitute option from the bench if he can work at normal levels, notching one goal in his 12 UEL appearances this campaign.

Out against Chelsea

Ndoye (undisclosed) is ruled out for Monday's clash against Chelsea.

Analysis: Ndoye has been unable to pass the testing that had been set to determine his availability, extending his absence to two matches despite his efforts to keep the undisclosed injury a minor setback and get back into the team as quickly as possible. The winger has started 14 of his 24 Premier League appearances this season but has seen much less involvement in the second half of the campaign, meaning his continued absence is unlikely to significantly disrupt the starting lineup given his current depth role. His situation will be monitored closely over the coming days as the club hopes the issue settles in time for him to return to the squad in the near future.

May 1, 2026

Late call with injury

Ndoye (undisclosed) remains questionable for Monday's match against Chelsea, according to manager Vitor Pereira, per Sarah Clapson of the Nottingham Post. "I don't know. I'm trying to be honest because I don't know. I really don't know. I must wait three days, and I hope they give me good news about the injured players because we need them."

Analysis: Ndoye is going to need some testing and training over the next few days as he remains questionable for their upcoming league game. The winger has only missed one match with the undisclosed injury thus far, trying to make the absence minor by getting back in the team. He has started in 14 of his 24 appearances, but has seen much less time in the second half of the campaign, likely to be a depth option if fit.

Apr 30, 2026

Not playing vs. Villa

Ndoye (undisclosed) is not in the squad for Thursday's Europa League semifinal against Aston Villa.

Analysis: Ndoye was spotted training on his own earlier in the week, and with that in mind, it's not surprising to see the winger out for this European clash. Ndoye started in the previous two EL matches, but now he'll aim to recover in time ahead of the upcoming fixtures against Chelsea and Aston Villa on May 4 and May 7, respectively.

Apr 29, 2026

Trains alone, doubtful Thursday

Ndoye (undisclosed) completed an individual training session Wednesday and is a doubt for Thursday's Europa League semifinal first leg against Aston Villa, according to Jak Netting of VAVEL. "It's normal to have some issues at this time of the season. We'll see tomorrow; they are trying to be ready. "

Analysis: Ndoye had been declared fit for Friday's clash against Sunderland after a one-game absence but remained an unused substitute and his return to individual work is a concerning sign heading into one of the biggest fixtures of Nottingham Forest's season. The winger has not started a Premier League game since early December and was a regular figure in Europa League, making his absence from team training a blow ahead of the clash. If he has to miss some time to recover, Igor Jesus will get a larger role in the front line.

Apr 23, 2026

Will be available Friday

Ndoye (undisclosed) will be available for Friday's game against Sunderland, according to manager Vitor Pereira. "Dan will be in condition to go to the game," Pereira said. "That is good news for us. Now, he is better and can play tomorrow. He can help us tomorrow because he is on the list. It was not serious, it was just a small problem."

Analysis: Ndoye didn't play in the 4-1 win over Burnley this past weekend, but the winger is ready to return after a one-game absence. However, he hasn't started a Premier League came since early December, so his return shouldn't cause a big wave in most fantasy formats.

Apr 19, 2026

Missing Sunday

Ndoye is out for Sunday's match against Burnley for undisclosed reasons.

Analysis: Ndoye is not on the team sheet Sunday and is missing out, with the attacker not with his team for undisclosed reasons. This is likely due to an injury or an unforeseen circumstance, as he is typically a usual sight on the team sheet, appearing 24 times this season. The hope will be that his issues are only minor, with only a few games left in the season.

Mar 15, 2026

Returns to bench

Ndoye (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Fulham.

Analysis: Ndoye was not an option midweek due to an undisclosed injury and will not miss another match due to this injury, with the attacker earning a spot on the bench. He has yet to start since January and will likely remain a rotational option in most spots moving forward.

Mar 11, 2026

Doubtful against Midtjylland

Ndoye (undisclosed) wasn't spotted in team training Wednesday and is a doubt for Thursday's Europa League clash against FC Midtjylland, according to Sarah Clapson from the Nottingham Post.

Analysis: Ndoye was not spotted in training with the squad Wednesday, just one day before Thursday's Europa League clash against FC Midtjylland. The winger is now a doubt for the matchup, though it remains unclear whether he is dealing with a physical issue or could still sneak into the squad. Ndoye has mostly been limited to a bench role since returning from a calf injury in January, so his potential absence should not shake up the starting XI under new coach Vitor Pereira.

Jan 9, 2026

Returns in FA Cup

Ndoye (calf) is in the starting lineup for Friday's FA Cup clash against Wrexham.

Analysis: Nottingham Forest are rotating the side considerably against Wrexham, but Ndoye will find a way into the XI since he needs to get into a rhythm after missing several games with a calf injury. This will be Ndoye's first appearance since logging one minute off the bench in a 3-0 win over Tottenham on Dec. 14, and his first start since Dec. 11.

Jan 3, 2026

Remains sidelined

Ndoye (calf) is out for Saturday's match versus Aston Villa.

Analysis: Ndoye was said to be a late call and will ultimately skip his fourth fixture on the trot. Omari Hutchinson and Dilane Bakwa are manning the wings from the start in this one. Ndoye will attempt to return in Tuesday's away game versus West Ham.

Jan 2, 2026

Touch and go for weekend

Ndoye (calf) is a late call for Saturday's match against Aston Villa, according to manager Sean Dyche, per Sarah Clapson of the Nottingham Post. "It will be touch and go for him this weekend, but hopefully he will return after that."

Analysis: Ndoye was dealt a calf injury this week and remains a doubt to play Saturday, a late call to play the match. He will probably need some testing to determine if he can play, likely only earning a bench spot if he can play after some questions about his health. This could make it a fourth straight game out, with the attacker starting in 14 of his 15 appearances this season while recording two goal contributions.

Dec 22, 2025

Dealing with injury

Ndoye (undisclosed) suffered an injury in recent days that made him miss Monday's 1-0 loss against Fulham and will sideline him as well for Saturday's clash against Manchester City, coach Sean Dyche said in a press conference. "He picked up an injury. It's not too serious but it certainly won't be this one or the next one, but we're hopeful that he comes back quickly."

Analysis: Ndoye is dealing with an undisclosed injury that will make him miss a second game in a row, although the injury isn't serious, according to coach Sean Dyche. Ndoye still has a chance to return before the end of the year, as his next opportunity to do so will be next week's clash against Everton. Callum Hudson-Odoi is getting a larger role in the frontline for Forest while Ndoye is recovering from his injury.

Nov 14, 2025

Goal drought reaches four games

Ndoye has failed to score in his last four EPL starts.

Analysis: Ndoye has two goals and one assist this season. He'll remain a dangerous weapon in the Forest's attack, but his fantasy upside will be close to minimal since his production isn't warranting a lot of consideration in a starting role.

Sep 14, 2025

Creates one chance

Ndoye registered five crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Arsenal.

Analysis: The midfielder had some good moments Saturday but couldn't do enough to spark a Nottingham Forest team which didn't look threatening at all. He has a favorable matchup coming up next week against Burnley, a team which has conceded seven goals in four EPL matches.

Aug 26, 2025

Assists in 1-1 draw

Ndoye assisted once to go with four crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Crystal Palace.

Analysis: Ndoye assisted Callum Hudson-Odoi to bring the game back to 1-1. This brings the new signing to two goal involvements for the year after he scored in the opening game against Brentford. In this match, he created two chances, with one of his four crosses being accurate.

Aug 18, 2025

Scores in Premier League debut

Ndoye scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 3-1 win over Brentford.

Analysis: Ndoye scored the second goal of the game on his Premier League debut as he helped his side win 3-1 over Brentford. In the Serie A last season for Bologna he scored eight goals and provided four assists. In this game, he attempted two crosses but was unsuccessful with both.
