Jesper Lindstrom - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Takes five shots in loss Lindstrom had five shots (one on target) during Sunday's 4-0 loss against Manchester United.

Impact Lindstrom was one of the few productive players from an Everton team that was completely overwhelmed by the opposition. The five shots attempted were a season high for the attacker but unfortunately for him accuracy wasn't there. A starter in each of the last four matches, Lindstrom will hope to help his team bouncing back during upcoming contests.

Heavily involved in draw Lindstrom had 10 crosses and six corners to go along with three shots (one on target) in a 0-0 draw against West Ham Saturday.

Impact Lindstrom was the most active Everton player offensively, though he was unable to find a teammate to get a go-ahead goal. He only created two chances off his attempts but should have more success against Brentford after the international break. Brentford has surrendered 22 goals in 11 league matches.

Busy offensively in loss Lindstrom had three shots (two on target), created two chances, sent in nine crosses (three accurate) and drew two fouls during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Southampton.

Impact Lindstrom was back in the starting XI and put up a great performance despite being on the losing side. The winger is struggling to find consistent playing time due to physical issues and strong competition at his position, but always delivers when given the chance to start, with seven shots and five chances created in three games. After mostly disappointing during his briet stint at Napoli, Lindstrom will hope he's finally able to showcase his skills in a consistent basis.

Set for return Lindstrom (illness) is an option for Saturday's match against Fulham, according to manager Sean Dyche.

Impact Lindstrom is back in the fold after missing out with an illness last week, as he has been cleared for play. The big question will be where he lines up, as he could see a spot on the bench or start. He did start in two of the three matches before his injury but those are also his only two starts in seven appearances on the team sheet, so he could realistically see time from the bench or starting XI.

Out with illness Lindstrom missed out on Saturday's 2-0 win against Ipswich Town due to an illness, according to manager Sean Dyche.

Impact Lindstrom had no notice of an injury ahead of Saturday's match with his reason for being sidelined having just now been released, as he is affected by an illness. That said, he will hope to recover over the next week, looking to be an option when the club faces Fulham on Oct. 26.

OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Subbed off against Crystal Palace Lindstrom had five crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Crystal Palace.

Impact Lindstrom registered five crosses (the second highest in the game), created two chances, and contributed defensively with two tackles and a block. He was replaced by Jack Harrison at halftime. Having started the previous two games, it appears he is in direct competition with Jack Harrison for the starting spot on the wing alongside Dwight McNeil.

SEPTEMBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to Everton Lindstrom has transferred to Everton on loan with an option to buy from Napoli, the two clubs relayed.

Impact Lindstrom is on the move after a challenging season at Napoli where he failed to earn a regular role, appearing 26 times (two starts) and tallying 15 shots (two on target), 13 key passes and 14 crosses (four accurate). He'll look to bounce back and resume producing as he did at Eintracht Frankfurt in his new club.

JULY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Creates three chances Monday Lindstrom recorded one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Monday's 1-1 draw against Udinese.

Impact Lindstrom made just his second Serie A start of the season Monday and put together a solid performance.

He also won one tackle and made one clearance before he was subbed off in the 81st minute for Cyril Ngonge.

MAY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Unused in Frosinone game Lindstrom (back) didn't play in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Frosinone.

Impact Lindstrom returned to the bench after a minor problem but didn't get any minute. He might have better chances versus Empoli if Matteo Politano (calf) was out, but Cyril Ngonge and Giacomo Raspadori are also ahead of him in the pecking order.

APRIL 14 • ROTOWIRE

Will return against Frosinone Lindstrom (back) went back into full training on Tuesday, Napoli announced.

Impact Lindstrom was a late scratch for the past game due to back spasms, but the issue didn't linger. He'll be back in the squad list against Frosinone on Sunday, but he hasn't started in ages and generally sees limited minutes off the bench, combining just 52 in his last five appearances, where he has logged two off-target shots, one key pass and one inaccurate cross. Cyril Ngonge is suspended for this one, so he'll be the top deputy on the right wing.

APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE

Will sit Monza game Lindstrom hasn't been called up for Sunday's clash with Monza due to back pain, Napoli announced.

Impact Lindstrom isn't an option for this one, but Napoli will have back the starter Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (thigh) on the left wing, on top of Giacomo Raspadori and Cyril Ngonge.

APRIL 6 • ROTOWIRE

Returns off bench Lindstrom came off the bench and played 19 minutes off the bench during Friday's scoreless draw with Monza.

Impact Lindstrom made his return after missing one match and was brought off the bench. The attacking midfielder has been little more than a bench option even when fit and that role doesn't seem set to change. That said he could be trusted with more minutes if he's moved past the back injury.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Will be back versus Monza Lindstrom (back) "is available but can't go 90 minutes, and I'll have to think whether to start him or use him off the bench," coach Walter Mazzarri announced.

Impact Lindstrom has shaken off some back pain that sidelined him last week and would be the frontrunner to replace Matteo Politano (suspension), but he might not make the XI due to his imperfect conditions. Giacomo Raspadori and Alessio Zerbin can also star on the right wing. He has logged three shots (one on target), one chance created, and four tackles (one won) in his last five appearances.

DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Roma match Lindstrom (back) hasn't been selected for Saturday's game versus Roma.

Impact Lindstrom suffered an ailment in training and won't be an option Saturday. Matteo Politano will most likely get the start as usual, while Giacomo Raspadori and Alessio Zerbini will provide depth on the offensive flanks.

DECEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

In doubt for Roma fixture Lindstrom was limited to some work on the gym on Friday due to back pain, Napoli informed.

Impact Lindstrom in nursing a minor problem but is questionable for Saturday's clash with Roma since he picked it up very late in the week. Matteo Politano would see the lion's share of minutes anyway. Giacomo Raspadori and Alessio Zerbin would be the backups on the wings if he missed out altogether.

DECEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Takes one shot against Inter Lindstrom (lower leg) had nine touches and one off-target shot in Sunday's 0-3 loss to Inter.

Impact Lindstron returned from a two-game absence but didn't play much and missed the mark in his lone attempt. He'll try to garner more minutes under the new coach, but he has two very established players ahead of him in the depth chart on the wings.

Called up for Inter game Lindstrom (lower leg) has been included in Napoli's squad list for Sunday's match with Inter.

Impact Lindstrom makes a quick return after sitting out two with an ailment. He has seen limited minutes off the bench for the better part of the last two months. He has tallied three shots (one on target), three key passes, and four tackles in his last six appearances.

DECEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers minor injury Lindstrom picked up a low-grade strain of the left tibialis posterior muscle, Napoli informed.

Impact Lindstrom has seen limited minutes in his first few months in Napoli, so their rotation isn't significantly affected by his injury. Matteo Politano will continue getting the lion's share of game time on the right wing, with Eljif Elmas and Giacomo Raspadori backing him up. He should be on the shelf for two or three weeks.

NOVEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Joins Italian club Lindstrom completed a permanent move to Napoli from Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday.

Impact Lindstrom started 29 of his 34 Bundesliga and Champions League appearances for the club last season, recording a combined eight goals on 56 shots (23 on target), two assists, 56 crosses (13 accurate) and 29 corners. While he is unlikely to unseat Piotr Zielinski as the primary corner taker, Lindstrom should see some of the workload and could offer decent fantasy upside.

Ends in limited role Lindstrom made 27 appearances (22 starts) during the 2022/23 Bundesliga.

Impact Lindstrom opened the season as an absolute nailed-on starter. The midfielder was solid early, storming to a hot start but struggling in the closing stages. In the final matches of the Bundesliga Lindstrom actually fell out of the starting XI. In the end Lindstrom ended on seven goals and two assists and with Daichi Kamada departing the club a major role should be open for Lindstrom.
