Makes three clearances Aguerd logged in three clearances and one interception in Wednesday's 0-0 tie versus Croatia.

Impact It was a silent match for Aguerd with just three clearances needed to help secure the clean sheet on Wednesday. He is Morocco's main defender and the main controller of the backline. The 26-year-old is projected to record twice as many clearances next game against the group favorites Belgium, which is also their toughest opponent thus far.

Starts in cup match Aguerd played for the full 90 in Wednesday's penalty loss to Blackburn Rovers in the League Cup.

Impact Aguerd has played in a couple of midweek matches over the last week since returning from an ankle injury that's kept him out all season. With a spot reserved in Morocco's team for the World Cup, Aguerd will look to recover as much fitness as he can over the next week even if he doesn't play in Saturday's match against Leicester City.

Returns to starting XI Aguerd (ankle) got the start at left-back during Thursday's Conference League clash against FCSB.

Impact Aguerd is back in the starting XI on Thursday, making his first start since picking up a long-term ankle injury. The defender was a doubt to get back in Premier League action before the World cup but was able to get onto the pitch Thursday and log a full 90 minutes, clearing the way for him to make his Premier League debut in a Sunday match against Crystal Palace.

Plays 15 minutes off bench Aguerd (ankle) played 15 minutes during Thursday's 1-0 win over Silkeborg.

Impact Aguerd was able to play 15 minutes Thursday, but remains out for Sunday's trip to Manchester United. The defender is being eased back into action just as manager David Moyes said he would be. Aguerd could return to Premier League action for a Nov. 6 clash with Crystal Palace.

Will have to wait for league action Aguerd (ankle) is close to a return and may make a squad in UEFA play, but he's not ready for the Premier League, according to manager David Moyes. "He's not in contention for Sund...

Impact Aguerd will probably appear in a Europa Conference League match before being given minutes in the Premier League, which means he probably won't feature in league play before the World Cup. He's expected to win a starting job at some point this season, but given this early injury, he'll have to fight his way into the squad.

Impact Aguerd should make a bench before the World Cup, but there's no guarantee he'll be in the starting XI in the next few weeks. He's been out a long time and still needs to get back complete fitness following ankle surgery. However, he's on the right track and figures to move into the XI at some point, as he may eventually be considered the team's top center-back.

Still working on ankle Aguerd (ankle) might be able to increase his training regiment as soon as next week, according to manager David Moyes. "I hope next week he can join bits of the football. He's a pr...

Impact Aguerd still may not return before the World Cup break but he should be able to participate in some reserve team matches by the end of the month. Having Kurt Zouma, Craig Dawson and Thilo Kehrer all fit means that Aguerd doesn't need to rush back from his injury without guarantees of regular playing time immediately.

OCTOBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Slowly making way back Aguerd (ankle) has been "doing a bit on the grass," according to manager David Moyes.

Impact It's a positive update on Aguerd, who is still likely weeks away from a return after getting ankle surgery at the end of July. Once ready, it's unclear what role he'll have with Kurt Zouma and Thilo Kehrer playing well together in recent matches. Not to mention, Craig Dawson is also back from injury, so Moyes will have a welcome problem on his hands once Aguerd returns.

JULY 26, 2022 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Ankle surgery successful Aguerd underwent surgery to resolve his ankle injury, the team announced Monday.

Impact The club didn't provide a specific recovery timeline for Aguerd to return to the pitch but he almost certainly won't be ready for the season opener versus Manchester City on Aug. 7. The defender started all 31 of his appearances for Rennes last season, in which he recorded two goals on 25 shots (seven on target), two assists and 124 clearances. Once cleared to return, the defender could push for a spot in the starting XI, though he is far from a lock to start on a regular basis.

Escapes without broken ankle Aguerd does not have a broken ankle, early x-rays show, confirmed manager David Moyes. "It might be some ligaments, or he's twisted his ankle - it blew up immediately so we have to...

Impact While there is no broke, Aguerd is still set to miss time with an ankle sprain. If it's in his high ankle, it could be up to a month, meaning he'll miss the first part of the campaign. No matter, there will be further updates in the next couple weeks and West Ham will be fine without him, as they had been a season ago.

Comes off injured in friendly Aguerd was subbed out of Tuesday's preseason friendly against Rangers in the 23rd minute after suffering an injury.

Impact Aguerd is working through his first preseason with West Ham after joining the club from Rennes in June, but he will hope that this injury isn't serious and doesn't hamper his preparations with his new side.

Makes move to West Ham Aguerd has signed a five-year contract with West Ham away from French side Rennes.

Impact Aguerd makes the move to the Premier League after starting 66 league matches the last two seasons with Rennes, who were in the Champions League two seasons ago. The center-back should fight for time immediately and provide depth for a fairly slim back line. Even as a center-back, he has five goals, three assists and 53 shots the last two seasons.

Stars statistically for Rennes Aguerd scored twice on 25 shots, tallied two assists and held 10 clean sheets in 31 league starts for Rennes in season 2021/22.

Impact Aguerd was a vital part of a brilliant campaign for the Bretons. He also added 27 tackles and 124 clearances and has been a fantasy star in most formats as well despite the team being a bit leaky at times.
