Destiny Udogie Injury: Training, too soon to play

Udogie (knee) has been training but Saturday's match against Manchester City is too soon, according to manager Thomas Frank. "We want him to train tomorrow and have another good week next week. He looks in a good place, very positive about him."

Udogie should be ready in a week and definitely ready for minutes after the international break. The question will be what his role looks like once fully fit and competing with Pedro Porro and Djed Spence for starts. At a minimum, the minutes will be there because Frank will likely rotate things a bit once UEFA play begins in a month.
