Could return vs Man United
Gibbs-White (face) could be available to face Manchester United on Sunday, according to manager Vitor Pereira. "He started to work with the team today, with the mask. Let's see," said the Portuguese. "It is strange when you use the mask. But I spoke with him and he said he was OK with the mask, no problem. We will see if he is ready and in condition for the next game."
Analysis: The playmaker didn't feature against Newcastle United the previous weekend, but since he's back in training, he could be an option for the trip to Old Trafford. Gibbs-White is in a race against time, as he needs to play before the end of the season to convince manager Thomas Tuchel that he's fit enough to represent England in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Gibbs-White has 13 goals and four assists in 35 Premier League appearances (33 starts) this season.
Out against Newcastle United
Gibbs-White (face) is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Newcastle United.
Analysis: Gibbs-White has been unable to earn a place in the squad for Sunday's clash against Newcastle United despite appearing on the bench in Thursday's UEL loss, with the facial wounds continuing to prove too significant to play through as the club maintains its cautious approach to his return. Dilane Bakwa starts in his place, with the coaching staff in no rush to reintegrate their midfielder into the matchday squad given the obvious concerns surrounding the nature of his injury. Whether he sees any further action this season remains highly uncertain, with his situation to be assessed on a day-to-day basis as the campaign enters its final stages.
