RENAN LODI NEWS

Set to rejoin Atletico Lodi will be back with Atletico Madrid next season following the conclusion of his loan with Nottingham Forest.

Impact Lodi's loan deal did include an option to buy which it seems Nottingham Forest has opted not to take advantage of. With the Premier League club, the left-back started 26 of his 28 appearances in which he recorded 75 crosses (12 accurate), 15 corners and one assist. With Reinildo (knee) dealing with a long-term injury, Lodi could be in contention for the left-back spot at the start of the 2023-24 campaign.

Active on left flank in win Renan Lodi generated one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 1-0 victory over Arsenal.

Impact The former Atletico Madrid left-back was a constant threat on the left side of the pitch for the Trick Trees, and he made his presence felt on both ends of the pitch. Lodi only has one assist this season, but he's made consistent contributions on defense and as a crossing threat all season long.

Impact Renan Lodi recorded a rare assist to help prevent the loss Saturday. It was his first assist since 2021, but has yet to record a goal since that year. The midfielder has been able to keep a balance of both offensive and defensive stats by averaging about 2.7 crosses and 2.2 clearances a match.

Starting against Chelsea Lodi (undisclosed) is in Forest's starting lineup for Saturday's clash against Chelsea.

Impact Lodi appeared to pick up an injury in the win over Southampton on Monday, but he's been deemed fit enough to continue in the XI Saturday at left wing-back.

Comes off injured Lodi was forced off with an apparent injury during the second half of Monday's clash with Southampton.

Impact Lodi was forced off late during Monday's match with what appeared to be an injury as he limped off. Lodi was able to walk and run under his own power before coming off so it's possible the injury is simply a knock or cramp, and largely non-serious.

Good to go against Everton Lodi is fit and in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Everton.

Impact Lodi is good to go after being a late fitness test with a groin injury. The wing-back has helped his club keep two clean sheets in 17 appearances while whipping in 47 crosses.

MARCH 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Late fitness test for weekend Lodi (groin) is still being assessed ahead of Sunday's clash against Everton, according to Forest manager Steve Cooper on Friday.

Impact Lodi picked up a groin injury in the second half of last weekend's 4-0 defeat against West Ham, and his status for Sunday's Everton game is still uncertain. He has started 10 consecutive Premier League games dating back to November for Nottingham Forest heading into the weekend, tallying seven shots, five chances created and two clean sheets in that span. Neco Williams or Harry Toffolo could replace him at left-back if necessary.

Sends seven crosses in 3-0 defeat Lodi recorded seven crosses (two accurate), two tackles (both won), two aerials won, two clearances and five corners in Tuesday's 3-0 defeat versus Manchester United.

Impact Lodi was very active here and had plenty of the ball both offensively and defensively despite the rough defeat. His massive role on set pieces was something new in his resume but if he can sustain that role his upside would certainly jump immensely. With three starts in last four matches he seems to have regained his regular role in the squad.

Logs 17 minutes in win Lodi played for 17 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 1-0 win over Liverpool.

Impact Lodi returned after missing three straight games with an ankle issue. He had started in four consecutive matches before the injury and could push Neco Williams back to the right flank now that Lodi is fit.

Bench option versus Liverpool Lodi (ankle) is available off the bench for Satuday's game against Liverpool.

Impact Lodi has recovered enough to be an option after a multi-week absence despite the previous pessimism by his coach. Serge Aurier is getting the nod on the left flank. He has notched two chances created, 18 crosses (one accurate), six tackles, and nine interceptions in four appearances so far.

Expected to remain out Lodi is expected to remain out for Saturday's match against Liverpool because of an ankle sprain, according to manager Steve Cooper.

Impact Lodi will miss his fourth-straight match with the ankle injury and it now coincides with an injury to his backup, Harry Toffolo. Somehow, Forest are getting thin at full-back, as Neco Williams and Serge Aurier are the only two healthy options at that position with the latter being pulled last match because he wasn't fit enough for a full 90.

Dealing with ankle knock Lodi has suffered a mild ankle sprain which caused him to miss Saturday's loss to Wolves and will remain in question for Tuesday's match against Brighton, according to manager Stev...

Impact Judging by the prognosis, Lodi might not be out for much longer, so he could be back by Saturday's match against Liverpool if he's not available Tuesday. With starts in all four of his appearances when fit, Harry Toffolo will need to move elsewhere when Lodi does make his return.

Back with group Lodi returned to training during Wednesday's session, according to Javi Gomez of Cadena Cope.

Impact Lodi had been training on his own as recently as yesterday but now he's joined the group ahead of a couple of friendlies. After starting just 13 league games last season, Lodi is likely to back up Yannick Carrasco on the left flank when the campaign kicks off Aug. 15 against Getafe.

Training separately Lodi trained separately from his teammates during Tuesday's session, according to Pedro Fullana of Cadena SER.

Impact It's not entirely clear what's ailing Lodi, but he still has two weeks before the season begins Aug. 15 against Getafe. Depending on the system manager Diego Simeone chooses, Lodi would still be a backup to Yannick Carrasco on the left flank after starting in just 13 of his 29 league appearances last season.

On bench in season finale Lodi was an unused substitute in Sunday's 2-1 victory against Real Sociedad.

Impact Lodi hit a good spot of form this season when he tallied three goals and an assist across four consecutive starts in all competitions from late February to mid-March, but the 24-year-old still doesn't look fully settled into Atletico's lineup. He has started just 24 of a possible 76 La Liga matches in the last two seasons, and the emergence of January signing Reinildo only adds more competition at left back.

Benefits from injury Lodi logged one assist during a 2-0 win Wednesday at Elche.
