Axel Tuanzebe
28-Year-Old
Burnley
Premier
OUT
Injury Undisclosed
Est. Return 12/20/2025
Could miss several weeks
Tuanzebe (undisclosed) missed Wednesday's 1-0 loss against Crystal Palace due to an injury and could miss several weeks, coach Scott Parker said to the media, according to the Burnley Express. "He picked up an injury at Brentford. It looks like he'll be out for a couple of weeks."
ANALYSIS
Tuanzebe suffered an injury against Brentford and couldn't feature in Wednesday's loss against Crystal Palace. The center-back could be set to miss a couple of weeks due to the setback, which is bad news for the Clarets given his undisputed starter role in the backline. Hjalmar Ekdal will replace him in defense until he returns to full fitness.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for Old Trafford departure
Manchester United are expected to release Tuanzbe in the summer, according to The Manchester Evening News.
ANALYSIS
This shouldn't be a surprise, as Tuanzebe has failed to replicate an impressive youth career at the top level. He seems likely to continue his career in the Championship or overseas rather than in another Premier League team.
