Bijol (hamstring) is eyeing a potential return after their match against Nottingham Forest on Feb. 6, according to manager Daniel Farke. "Jaka will definitely also miss the Arsenal game," the boss said. "He is progressing in his rehab. We hope to have him back on the other side of the Nottingham game."

Bijol is still not an option, but has received some positive news, as the defender is progressing in rehabilitation. This leaves the defender eyeing a return after their Nottingham Forest match on Feb. 6, potentially an option to face Chelsea on Feb. 10. This would mean a return of a starting defender, something the club will hope comes sooner rather than later.
