Wilson Odobert is the latest addition to the injury list after he ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee against Newcastle United.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are concerns around Solanke\u2019s availability, although both he and Richarlison participated in training this week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When asked whether any injured players would return for the derby in Friday\u2019s press conference<\/a>, interim head coach Igor Tudor said: \u201cProbably no. Solanke had some problems with his throat, but today, he made some training. All others, probably someone [will return] next week.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Tudor\u2019s comments suggest Solanke is being monitored rather than ruled out, making him a likely starter if he responds well before Sunday.<\/span><\/p>\n
