Available off bench Kluivert (groin) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Sunderland.

Impact Kluivert was expected to return to the match squad in a few weeks but the Friday training session where he was expected to do something proved very positive for the medical staff since he is back available and an option off the bench for the Cherries. This is great news for Bournemouth since he was a regular starter prior to his setback, starting four of his last six appearances. He also contributed one goal in that span.

Expected to train Friday Kluivert (groin) is expected to do some sort of training on Friday, coach Andoni Iraola said in the press conference, according to Alexander Smith from the Bournemouth Daily Echo.

Impact Kluivert is progressing well in his rehabilitation from an adductor injury and hopes to resume some form of team training on Friday for the first time since his setback, according to coach Andoni Iraola. This is encouraging news since he is a regular starter in the Cherries' frontline and a return to the match squad in the first half of December is now expected. Until then, Eli Kroupi is expected to take on a larger role in the attack.

Suffers groin injury Kluivert (groin) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against West Ham United, coach Andoni Iraola said in the press conference, according to Jordan Clark from BBC Radio Solent Sport.

Impact Kluivert suffered a groin injury while on international duty with Netherlands and is ruled out for Saturday's clash against West Ham United. The forward will likely be assessed at the beginning of next week to know if he can be back available for upcoming fixtures. David Brooks or Amine Adli will be the likely options to replace him in the frontline against the Hammers.

Returns to Bournemouth Kluivert suffered an injury with the Netherlands and has returned to Bournemouth for testing, according to his national team.

Impact Kluivert has suffered an injury over the international break and is unable to continue with his national team, instead returning to his club for testing and rehabilitation. This is something to watch for the club, as he has started in four of their past six matches after earning a bench spot to begin the season. With a quick turnaround leading up to Saturday's match against West Ham, he will hope the injury is minor, with David Brooks or Amine Adli as possible replacements if he misses further time.

Finds net from bench appearance Kluivert scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Friday's 3-1 victory versus Fulham.

Impact Kluivert came off the bench after 61 minutes and smashed home a long-range beauty in the 84th minute from his only shot on target that proved decisive in turning the match in Bournemouth's favor. The attacking midfielder has had just one start and is usually deployed in most games from the bench, this was his first strike of the season.

Impactful bench appearance in draw Kluivert recorded one shot (on target), two crosses (none accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Newcastle United.

Impact Kluivert came off the bench Sunday after 63 minutes and nearly broke the deadlock when his low free-kick in stoppage time forced a sharp save from Nick Pope. It was his only shot on target in a match otherwise starved of chances. He also drew plenty of attention from Newcastle defenders, illustrating his positional threat even when service was limited. Recent games suggest Kluivert has been more effective when introduced in the second half, exploiting tiring backlines with clever runs and set-piece involvement, though he's still lacking volume of shots and assists in tighter fixtures.

SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Close to 100 percent Kluivert is ramping up his fitness levels following his return last match, according to manager Andoni Iraola. "Justin is quite sharp and is at a good level to help."

Impact Kluivert is still building up his fitness after a return from a calf injury, with the attacker now nearing 100 percent after the slight layoff. This should ensure the attacker remains in the starting XI moving forward, looking to return to last year's form where he registered 18 goal contributions in 34 appearances (29 starts).

AUGUST 29 • ROTOWIRE

First start of the season Kluivert got his first start of the 2025/26 campaign during Tuesday's Carabao Cup clash with Brentford.

Impact Kluivert played 66 minutes during the start, looking his best and moving well. He's continuing to ramp up his playing time after missing the opener, and then playing 14 minutes off the bench against Wolves. When fit Kluivert should start ahead of David Brooks on the wing. He could take that starting job as soon as Saturday's trip to Tottenham.

AUGUST 26 • ROTOWIRE

Makes presence felt from bench appearance Kluivert generated two shots (zero on goal) and one corner in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Wolverhampton.

Impact Kluivert made his first start of the season from the bench Saturday after 78 minutes. He missed the season opener at Anfield due to a preseason calf injury. The Dutchman's presence added width and pace to Bournemouth's attack, he narrowly missed a goal attempt and had another strike blocked. Now that he is fit and integrated into the starting lineup he should evolve to regularly score goals and produce assists through his ability to stretch defenses and deliver accurate crosses.

AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to bench Kluivert (calf) is back available on the bench for Saturday's clash against Wolves.

Impact Kluivert was expected to miss another game due to a calf injury but was ultimately deemed fit enough to take a place on the bench Saturday. This is good news for the Cherries as it adds an option in the frontline, and the Dutchman could compete for a starting role after building his match fitness gradually.

Impact Kluivert is going to miss another match as he deals with a calf injury, with the attacker only trained slightly but unable to fully play a match yet. That said, he will likely look to return in their next match, but way wait until after the international break in a few weeks to be cautious. Once he is fit, he should see an elevated role, notching 18 goal contributions in 34 appearances last campaign.

Impact Kluivert netted 12 Premier League goals last season but didn't play a single minute in preseason while recovering from an injury, so his absence from this game isn't surprising. Expect David Brooks to start in his place as an attacking midfielder. Kluivert's next chance to play will come against Wolverhampton on Saturday, Aug. 23.

AUGUST 14 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers calf injury Kluivert suffered a calf injury during pre-season and is having trouble making a quick recovery, coach Andoni Iraola told the media, according to Jordan Clark.

Impact Kluivert is dealing with a calf injury suffered during the Cherries' pre-season and is struggling to make good progress in his recovery. He will be in doubt for the season opener against Liverpool on Friday. If he misses the game, Hamed Traore will likely replace him as the number 10.

AUGUST 10 • ROTOWIRE

Breaks out with Cherries Kluivert totaled 12 goals and six assists from 63 shots, 44 chances created and 35 corners in 34 league appearances (29 starts) this past season.

Impact Kluivert had a somewhat breakout season that was subdued by injury and lack of fitness to close the campaign. Still, he hit double-digit goals as Bournemouth's penalty taker in addition to a bigger role on corners. No matter what happens to the players around him, he figures to be a key piece for the Cherries going forward with another double-digit campaign in the cards in 2025/26.

Makes starting XI Kluivert (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash with Crystal Palace.

Impact Kluivert was expected to be available for Saturday's game after recovering from his muscular overload. The forward is fit enough to start, and he should stay in the starting XI for the rest of the season as he has been an undisputed starter when healthy in the frontline for the Cherries.

APRIL 19 • ROTOWIRE

Available against Palace Kluivert (undisclosed) will be available for Saturday's clash against Crystal Palace, coach Andoni Iraola said in the press conference, according to Jordan Clark.

Impact Kluivert is expected to make his return in the match squad after missing the last three games due to muscular overload. That said, this is good news for the Cherries since he is a regular starter in the frontline, and he could return directly to the starting XI on Saturday.

Remains out Kluitvert (undisclosed) is out for Monday's match against Fulham.

Impact Kluivert was pushing to make the squad Monday but has missed out, with this being his third straight game left on the sidelines. This continues to be a rough loss, as he is a typical starter. Alec Scott continues to see the start in his place.

Impact Kluivert is among three Bournemouth attackers trying to make a return for Monday's clash with Fulham. It's unclear if he'll be able to do so, though he'd certainly be a nice boon to have back after two matches sidelined. Kluivert's absence has allowed Dango Ouattara to take on a larger starting role.
