Est. Return 8/23/2025
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Christie was excellent throughout the 2024/25 campaign, starting almost every match he was fit for while adding five goal contributions. There was some concern that Tyler Adams would eat into his minutes, but Christie was an unquestioned starter, at least until a groin injury ended his season early. The injury isn't expected to change his starting gig for 2025/26, though if Adams and Alex Scott can remain healthy, there's a chance the consistent minutes evaporate. Christie isn't a major offensive threat, but in the right situation with set pieces, he can always impress on the score sheet.

Hopeful for Saturday
Christie (groin) is a late call for Saturday's match against Wolves, according to manager Andoni Iraola. "Ryan has trained with us all week, so I hope he is with us. We still have training this afternoon, but we hope he is with us for the weekend."
ANALYSIS
Christie missed the opener but is now a possibility for Saturday, likely needing to pass a fitness test to be an option after being labeled as a late call. The club will be happy to hear this as an attempt to gain back a midfielder, who should see plenty of time once fit. That said, if the midfielder is fit, he will likely see the start, with Tyler Adamas probably starting in his spot if Christie is unable to.

Too early to play Friday
Christie (groin) has resumed team training this week but it is too early for him to play on Friday for the season opener against Liverpool, coach Andoni Iraola said in the press conference. "Ryan has been training this week with us, which is positive. It's too early for him to play as he hasn't done any pre-season. He hasn't done a lot of things for a lot of weeks, so it's too early - but it's good to have him back on the pitch with the group."
