Brajan Gruda
21-Year-Old
Brighton & Hove Albion
Premier
OUT
Injury Knee
Est. Return 11/9/2025
Remains out
Gruda (knee) remains out for Saturday's clash against Leeds United, coach Fabian Hurzeler said in the press conference. "Also, the players who are still affected by small issues still might not be available. There are small chances, but I think that the squad from Arsenal will be the squad for tomorrow."
ANALYSIS
Gruda has been dealing with a knee issue and will likely miss a third game in a row since the game against Leeds United on Saturday is coming too soon for the attacking midfielder, except a late minute surprise. That said, coach Fabian Hurzeler look optimistic, suggesting Gruda could potentially return for next Sunday's clash against Crystal Palace if everything goes as planned. The attacking midfielder has mainly been a bench option this season and is expected to hold that role once fully back fit for the Seagulls.
