Yasser Larouci - Plays with U21's Larouci was in action on Tuesday, playing for Sheffield United's U21 team.

Impact Larouci looks to be closing in on full fitness after taking part in a match with Sheffield United's U21 team. This was his first time playing on the pitch since picking up his knock a couple of weeks ago. He should break back into the first-team lineup again soon and could rival Luke Thomas for playing time once he is fully fit. He has made four appearances this year, one as a starter, and should start to appear frequently once he is back healthy.

Oliver McBurnie - Sent off late in loss McBurnie generated two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur. He picked up two yellow cards and was sent off in the 104th minute.

Impact McBurnie was shown two yellow cards Saturday, the latter being a controversial booking for dissent in the 104th minute. He will be suspended for next Sunday's clash versus Newcastle United and will be eligible to return Sept. 30 at West Ham United.

Jack Robinson - Records assist at Tottenham Robinson assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Tottenham Hotspur. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 63rd minute.

Impact Robinson recorded just his second career Premier League assist Saturday as he set up Gustavo Hamer's goal in the 73rd minute. It was the only chance he created in the match to go with three clearances and a season-high three blocked shots in his full 90 minutes of playing time.

Gustavo Hamer - Scores at Tottenham Hamer was injured and subbed out in the 81st minute of Saturday's 2-1 loss against Tottenham Hotspur. He scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), three crosses (two accur...

Impact Hamer scored his second goal of the season Saturday, a nice strike in the 73rd minute assisted by Jack Robinson that would have been the winner if not for two late goals from Spurs. He had a solid match outside of that before leaving in the 81st minute with an injury, as he created three chances and made a season-high two clearances.

Wes Foderingham - Makes eight saves in loss Foderingham had eight saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 45th minute.

Impact Through 97 minutes it appeared Foderingham was in for his first clean sheet of the season Saturday, but Spurs scored two extremely late goals to win the game at the death. Still, Foderingham made a season-high eight saves, and there was not much he could have done about either of Spurs' goals. He faces an easier matchup next Sunday versus Newcastle United, a side which has scored eight goals in five league matches this season.

Yasser Larouci - Available off bench Saturday Larouci (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's game against the Spurs.

Impact Manager Paul Heckingbottom told reporters on Thursday that Larouci "was training fine," so his presence in the matchday squad isn't surprising. He benefited from the international break and might be an option on the left side of the defense if called upon duty.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Anel Ahmedhodzic - Starting against Spurs Ahmedhodzic (hamstring) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Tottenham.

Impact Ahmedhodzic used the international break to recover from a nagging hamstring injury, and manager Paul Heckingbottom said he was fine during Thursday's press conference, so his presence in the lineup isn't surprising. He's been ever-present at center-back for the Blades this season, racking up 20 clearances, eight tackles and six interceptions across five starts.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Rhian Brewster - Recovering slowly Brewster (hamstring) is very cautiously recovering from his hamstring injury, according to manager Paul Heckingbottom.

Impact Brewster isn't being rushed back and is very slowly easing his way back into training. He recently return to Sheffield to begin working with the teams physio's and get closer to match fitness. Paul Heckingbottom was very clear about not giving Brewster any timeline, and not rushing him back into any sort of injury relapse.

Rhys Norrington-Davies - Situation deemed complicated Norrington-Davies (hamstring) is undergoing a complex recovery program, according to manager Paul Heckingbottom via The Star. "It's a complex situation with Rhys but he's working h...

Impact Norrington-Davies has no definite timeline for his return as he continues to recover from a hamstring injury that required surgery. The defender will hope to return before the October international break but that will all depend on how he handles the recovery program he's currently working through.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

John Fleck - Back in training Fleck (leg) returned to training Friday, according to manager Paul Heckingbottom.

Impact Fleck made his way back into individual training on grass Friday. The midfielder still faces a lengthy process to complete his return after suffering a double leg fracture, but is trending in the right direction. The midfielder will hope to make his way back before the October international break.

Ismaila Coulibaly - Out Saurday Coulibaly (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's trip to Tottenham, The Star reports.

Impact Coulibaly is sidelined for Saturday's clash with an undisclosed issue. It remains to be seen if this is a recurrence of the knee injury he struggled with earlier, but it's certainly a concern as Coulibaly is left waiting for his 2023/24 Premier League debut.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Max Lowe - Undergoes ankle surgery Lowe (ankle) underwent a surgery on his ankle ligament injury, The Star reports.

Impact Lowe suffered torn ankle ligaments after stepping on a sprinkler during a clash with Nottingham Forest. The defender underwent ankle surgery and could be on the sideline for a substantial period of time. Lowe started the opening two matches and has been replaced by Yasser Larouci since.

Daniel Jebbison - Dealing with illness Jebbison (illness) is out for Saturday's trip to Tottenham, The Star reports.

Impact Jebbison will miss yet another match, this time with an illness. It's an awful start to the season for the striker, who has yet to appear in the Premier League due to injury and illness. Jebbison's next chance to return is a Sept. 24 clash with Newcastle.

Anel Ahmedhodzic - Used break to rehab injury Ahmedhodzic didn't join the Bosnian national team during the international break but recovered well and could be an option for Saturday's match against Tottenham, manager Paul Heck...

Impact Heckingbottom said the defender "got himself fit" during the break, and while hamstring injuries are always tricky, he seems to be trending in the right direction toward being available and ready to start against the Spurs. Ahmedhodzic has started all four games this season for the Blades, racking up five shots (zero on target), eight tackles (six won) and 20 clearances.

Yasser Larouci - Training with squad Larouci (undisclosed) is training with the squad ahead of Saturday's clash with Tottenham. Manager Paul Heckingbottom told reporters, "Yasser training fine," per Nathan Hemmingham...

Impact Larouci was making his first start of the season against Everton when he suffered his undisclosed injury. It seems the midfielder benefitted from the international break and could be called upon to start with George Baldock (calf) having picked up an injury while on international duty.

John Egan - In doubt Saturday Egan sustained an undisclosed injury while with Ireland and may not be available versus Tottenham on Saturday after manager Paul Heckingbottom told reporters, "George Baldock, Will...

Impact Egan joined Ireland during the break despite suffering an ankle injury versus Everton on Sept. 2 and appeared to be back to 100 percent, going the full 90 minutes against France. Egan, however, was subbed out in the 73rd minute of Ireland's meeting with the Netherlands due to his undisclosed injury. Chris Basham could be in line to start for Egan if the central defender can't play against Tottenham.

William Osula - Picks up knock Osula is dealing with an undisclosed injury sustained while playing for Denmark that could sideline him versus Tottenham on Saturday. Manager Paul Heckingbottom told reporters, "Ge...

Impact While Osula did start the first three matches of the season for Sheffield, the return of Oliver McBurnie and the addition of Cameron Archer likely would have served to relegate Osula to a bench role against Spurs anyway. Still, Osula's potential absence would stretch a Sheffield United squad that is already light on additional attack options.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

George Baldock - Sustains injury with Greece Baldock has returned from international duty with a calf injury and should be considered a doubt against Tottenham on Saturday after manager Paul Heckingbottom told reporters, "Geo...

Impact Baldock featured in three of the club's first four contests prior to the international break, recording nine crosses (one accurate), seven clearances and two chances created. If Baldock can't play versus Spurs, James McAtee could be an option to replace Baldock, who has been slotting into a right-midfield role to open the campaign.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Anis Ben Slimane - Racking up youth minutes Slimane continues to ramp up his minutes and got another start with the U21s on Tuesday against Cardiff City.

Impact At 22 years old, Slimane looks to be building his fitness with the youth team, which wasn't expected coming into the season. However, despite dealing with a minor injury the first month he may be seen more of as a project based off the rest of the club's additions. He's behind a few players at forward and in a midfield role, he'll be behind all newcomers in Gustavo Hamer, Vinicius and James McAtee.
