Jerome Boateng - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Unavailable versus Milan Boateng (undisclosed) hasn't been selected for Saturday's clash with Milan, Salernitana announced.

Impact Boateng will miss his fifth game in a row and end a disappointing six-month spell with 20 clearances, four interceptions and five blocks in just seven appearances (four starts) since he routinely got hurt. He'll move on after the relegation.

Stays out for Frosinone fixture Boateng (undisclosed) hasn't been selected for Friday's game versus Frosinone, Salernitana informed.

Impact Boateng will miss his second game in a row due to an unspecified injury. Konstantinos Manolas is back after an injury, joining Lorenzo Pirola, Niccolo Pierozzi, Federico Fazio and Marco Pellegrino among the defensive options.

Will miss Fiorentina clash Boateng won't be available against Fiorentina, coach Stefano Colantuono announced.

Impact Boateng has routinely dealt with muscular issues since signing in January. Norbert Gyomber and Konstantinos Manolas are out as well due to similar issues. The boss might move on from a three-man defense or turn to Federico Fazio, Niccolo Pierozzi, Marco Pellegrino and Triantafyllos Pasalidis, in addition to Lorenzo Pirola.

Plays a few minutes in Sassuolo game Boateng (thigh) won one duel and had 16 touches in 13 minutes in Friday's 2-2 draw versus Sassuolo.

Impact Boateng relieved Konstantinos Manolas late in the game but didn't record meaningful stats. His conditioning will need to improve for him to earn more minutes, plus, new coach Stefano Colantuono has been using one fewer center-back. He has tallied 16 clearances, four interceptions and three blocks in his last four appearances.

APRIL 6 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Friday Boateng (undisclosed) is on the bench for Friday's game against Sassuolo.

Impact Boateng has not played much this season, making just three starts and five appearances since joining the team in early February. He will add depth off the bench but shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy value.

APRIL 5 • ROTOWIRE

Available versus Sassuolo Boateng (undisclosed) has been called up for Friday's match against Sassuolo, Salernitana relayed.

Impact Boateng escaped without an injury after a hiccup in training on the eve of the game and will at least be an option. He's not among the favorites to start and barely played in the last two rounds. He has posted four interceptions, 13 clearances, and three blocks in his last five appearances.

In dout for Sassuolo bout Boateng left Thursday's training session early due to an apparent muscular injury, Il Mattino informed.

Impact Boateng will undergo further evaluations in the lead-up to the game and might necessitate some tests. The recency of the issues seriously jeopardizes his availability for Friday's tilt. He didn't play much in the last two games after recovering from a previous physical problem. Konstantinos Manolas, Lorenzo Pirola and Marco Pellegrini are currently at the top of the depth chart in the back.

Unused in Lecce tilt Boateng (calf) wasn't inserted in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Lecce.

Impact Boateng was back on the game-day squad list after two weeks but didn't find minutes. He'll be near the top of the hierarchy if he manages to stay healthy going forward, which hasn't been the case yet.

MARCH 19 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to bench Boateng (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Lecce.

Impact Boateng is making his return to the team sheet following a two-match absence, having recovered from groin complications. The defender will now hope to possibly see the start in the club's next match, as since joining the club in February, he has gotten the start in three of the four contests he has been available for.

MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE

Will not return versus Lecce Boateng (calf) will remain sidelined for Saturday's clash with Lecce, Tuttomercatoweb relayed.

Impact Boateng hasn't been able to re-join his teammates in practice this week and will miss his third contest in a row. Two among Konstantinos Manolas, Lorenzo Pirola, Federico Fazio (ankle), and Marco Pellegrino will get the start Saturday.

MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE

Will sit Cagliari fixture Boateng (calf) will remain sidelined for Saturday's clash with Cagliari, coach Fabio Liverani announced.

Impact Boateng will skip his second contest in a row due to a minor muscular injury. Salernitana are welcoming back Federico Fazio (calf) and Lorenzo Pirola (thigh) in this one, and one of the two might team up with Konstantinos Manolas.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Udinese game Boateng (calf) will be unavailable Saturday versus Udinese, coach Fabio Liverani informed.

Impact Boateng logged some minutes in the previous match but might have made the situation worse as he has been unable to practice this week. Triantafyllos Pasalidis, Konstantinos Manolas, and Marco Pellegrini will be the alternatives in the middle of the defense.

MARCH 1 • ROTOWIRE

Posts one interception versus Monza Boateng (calf) won one duel and had one interception in 29 minutes in Saturday's 2-0 loss versus Monza.

Impact Boateng was managed after being forced off last week, and his insertion didn't really lift the defense. He wasn't dealing with a proper injury but rather with conditioning problems and fatigue. He'll be back in the XI against Udinese if he has a clean week of practice. He has posted 16 clearances, two interceptions and three blocks in four matches since joining.

FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Probable for Monza game Boateng will be at his coach's disposal even though he hasn't practiced much this week, Il Mattino informed.

Impact Boateng avoided a proper injury despite subbing off early last week but is feeling the effects of being out of action for several months since he was without a team. The gaffer fielded him anyway in the previous game due to a lack of alternatives but might be more cautious this time, also because a switch to a four-man defense could be in the cards. He has posted one interception, 16 clearances and three blocks in three games since joining.

FEBRUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Limps off versus Inter Boateng had one interception and four clearances in 24 minutes before leaving Saturday's match against Inter due to a muscular injury, Goal reported.

Impact Boateng wasn't 100 percent coming into the game and wasn't a lock to start and didn't last long. He's headed for some tests ahead of next Saturday's home game versus Monza. The coach switched to a four-man line once he subbed off, inserting midfielder Giulio Maggiore. Konstantinos Manolas might be ready to start if needed next week, while Marco Pellegrino and Triantafyllos Pasalidis got the nod in this one.

FEBRUARY 16 • ROTOWIRE

Logs eight clearances against Torino Boateng won two duels and recorded eight clearances and two blocks in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Torino.

Impact Boateng looked good for somebody who hadn't played in seven months, although he wasn't credited with the clean sheet before he left after an hour due to fatigue. He'll be a staple in the back if he stays healthy, especially with Norbert Gyomber (groin) set to miss extended time.

FEBRUARY 4 • ROTOWIRE

Signs with Salernitana Boateng has agreed to a contract with Salernitana until the end of the season, the team announced.

Impact Boateng has found a home after seven months without a club and could be thrown in right away as Salernitana have some issues in the back and parted ways with a couple of regulars. Despite his imperfect conditions, he'll be at the top of the pecking order right away given his caliber and past. He tallied 16 clearances, six interceptions, and three tackles in eight matches with Lyon last season.
