Impact Boly is back on the bench as expected after training earlier in the week. The defender has been a backup when fit, and shouldn't push into the starting XI outside of rotation.

Option off bench Boly (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's clash with Fulham.
Spotted in training Boly (calf) was spotted in training Friday and could be an option to face Fulham on Saturday.
Impact Boly has missed two games in a row due to a nagging calf injury, but seeing the center-back in training could open the door for his return to action, possibly as early as Saturday in this match against the Cottagers. Boly hasn't started since the season opener against Bournemouth on Aug. 17.

Impact Boly has been making progress from a nagging calf injury that has limited him to just two appearances this season, and the center-back hasn't featured since coming off the bench in the 1-0 win over Southampton on Aug. 24. Boly is trending in the right direction, though, and he could have a shot at playing against Fulham on Sep. 28.

Impact Boly returned from international duty with the calf issue, and hasn't been active in full training. He's unlikely to make a recovery in time for Saturday's clash, and even if he can get back to passable fitness, he likely wouldn't have been a starter either way.

Impact Boly has been added to the injury list as he returns from national team duty, having gone down with a calf issue during training. He has yet to receive further testing from his club, so a timetable and the severity of the injury are still unknown. He currently sits as questionable for the club's upcoming match, although it doesn't appear he would be the biggest loss after only seeing one minute of play in the club's last two contests.

Staying at Forest Boly signed a new, one-year deal with Nottingham Forest with the option for a second.
Impact Boly was a favorite of Nuno Espirito Santo to close out the season, resulting in four-straight starts following a month out with injury. He finished with 18 starts from 20 appearances and could be used more frequently next campaign as long as he can stay healthy. But as always with Forest, new transfers in the summer could change the lineup over the next three months.

Leaves field early Boly appears to have picked up an injury after coming off the field in the 84th minute of Sunday's 2-0 loss to Manchester City, according to manager Nuno Espirito Santos, per Sarah...
Impact Boly could be heading back to the sidelines immediately, as he just returned from injury Sunday but was forced off the field later into the match and is now set for testing due to injury. This has been a brutal run for the defender, as he has only appeared in two games since Jan 20 due to numerous injuries. He will now hope for the best from his testing, but if he misses time, expect Moussa Niakhate or Andrew Omobamidele to serve in his place.

Starting vs. Man City Boly (strain) is in the starting lineup to face Manchester City on Sunday.
Impact Boly will make an immediate return to the starting lineup after missing five games in a row, and the defender will have a daunting task dealing with the front three of Jeremy Doku, Julian Alvarez and Jack Grealish. Boly has made just one start since the beginning of January, and the best bet for him to get fantasy value would be to rack up ton of defensive stats or, in a best-case scenario, get an unlikely clean sheet.

Suffers muscle injury with Ivory Coast Boly was forced off with a muscle injury while representing Ivory Coast and is set to be questionable for Saturday's match with Crystal Palace, per the Nottinghamshire Live.
Impact Boly had made just one appearances for Nottingham since Jan 20, having just returned from an undisclosed injury. Even if he is ruled fit, the defender will likely start on the bench with Murillo and Andrew Omobamidele the expected pair at center back for the clash with Crystal Palace. Boly started 14 of the 16 games played, logging in a goal on 68 clearances, 32 tackles (19 won) and 20 interceptions.

Doubtful Sunday Boly (undisclosed) is a doubt for Sunday's clash with Brighton, according to manager Nuno Espirito Santo.
Impact Boly will be a heavy doubt for Sunday's clash despite getting back in team training earlier in the week. The defender's status is reportedly unchanged from the clash with Liverpool that he missed. Still his injury wasn't expected to be serious so there's a chance he could earn a spot on the bench Sunday.

Featured in group training Boly (undisclosed) was viewed in group training ahead of Sunday's match against Brighton.
Impact Boly looks to be the closest he has been to a return since picking up his undisclosed issue just over a month ago, finally having trained with the group. Based on the latest developments, this gives the defender a decent chance to return against Brighton, as with a further three days to recover and work with the team, he should be ready to go by then. With that being said, there is a solid chance he gets back in the starting XI if fit enough to play, although the club may limit him after the extended absence, giving Murillo and Andrew Omobamidele or Felipe the start in the middle of the defense once again.

Too soon to return Boly (undisclosed) is not in the Forest squad to face Liverpool on Saturday.

Impact Boly is still working on making his way back from the injury he picked up at AFCON.

Returns from AFCON Boly (AFCON) is back in Nottingham Forest following the conclusion of AFCON.

Impact Boly remains in Africa following his service in AFCON 2023, missing his fifth match in a row with Nottingham. However, the defender is expected to return within the next couple of days, hopefully being an option for next Saturday's match against Aston Villa. Once he does return, he will hope to find the starting XI, as he has started in 13 of the 17 contests he has been selected to the team sheet for.
