Out after thumb surgery

Tuanzebe is dealing with a thumb injury and will be sidelined for the foreseeable future, according to manager Kieran McKenna. "Tuanzebe has had a pretty big surgery on his thumb and it's a pretty big recovery process that he's in. It's an incredible injury that he's been through to be honest. He's had a few days in hospital and is back in the building now and starting to work on his conditioning. The timeframe for recovery is undetermined at the minute. Hopefully it's a matter of weeks rather than months. We'll see him after the international break, exactly which game for we're not sure yet."
ANALYSIS
Tuanzebe missed a game against Crystal Palace in early March due to a hamstring injury, but he's also recovering from a "significant thumb surgery," so it's uncertain when he'll be back. He's slated to return to the club facilities after the international break, but it wouldn't be surprising if he also misses a few games in April until he's back to full fitness.

Out with hamstring injury
DIpswich Town
OUT
March 6, 2025
Tuanzebe is out for Saturday's match against Crystal Palace due to a hamstring injury, according to Stuart Watson of the East Anglian Daily Times. "I don't think it's as bad as the last time. He has a small muscle injury and he also needs an operation on his thumb from the injury before. So he's going to have an operation in the next couple of days on that and that will take a period of recovery. He won't be available this weekend and we'll make assessments from there."

OUT
May 16, 2023
Manchester United are expected to release Tuanzbe in the summer, according to The Manchester Evening News.
ANALYSIS
This shouldn't be a surprise, as Tuanzebe has failed to replicate an impressive youth career at the top level. He seems likely to continue his career in the Championship or overseas rather than in another Premier League team.
